MkSaaS DocsSearch
Implement document search in your docs
Fumadocs UI provides a good-looking search UI for your docs, the search functionality is instead provided and documented on Fumadocs Core.
See Document Search.
Search UI
Open with ⌘ K or Ctrl K.
Configurations
You can customize search UI from the Root Provider component in root layout.
When not specified, it uses the Default fetch Search Client powered by Orama.
Custom Links
Add custom link items to search dialog. They are shown as fallbacks when the query is empty.
import { RootProvider } from 'fumadocs-ui/root-provider';
<RootProvider
search={{
links: [
['Home', '/'],
['Docs', '/docs'],
],
}}
>
{children}
</RootProvider>;Disable Search
To opt-out of document search, disable it from root provider.
import { RootProvider } from 'fumadocs-ui/root-provider';
<RootProvider
search={{
enabled: false,
}}
>
{children}
</RootProvider>;Hot Keys
Customise the hot keys to trigger search dialog.
import { RootProvider } from 'fumadocs-ui/root-provider';
<RootProvider
search={{
hotKey: [
{
display: 'K',
key: 'k', // key code, or a function determining whether the key is pressed
},
],
}}
>
{children}
</RootProvider>;Tag Filter
Add UI to change filters. Make sure to configure Tag Filter on search server first.
import { RootProvider } from 'fumadocs-ui/root-provider';
<RootProvider
search={{
options: {
defaultTag: 'value',
tags: [
{
name: 'Tag Name',
value: 'value',
},
],
},
}}
>
{children}
</RootProvider>;Search Options
Pass options to the search client, like changing the API endpoint for Orama search server:
import { RootProvider } from 'fumadocs-ui/root-provider';
<RootProvider
search={{
options: {
api: '/api/search/docs',
},
}}
>
{children}
</RootProvider>;Replace Search Dialog
You can replace the default Search Dialog with:
'use client';
import SearchDialog from 'fumadocs-ui/components/dialog/search-default';
import type { SharedProps } from 'fumadocs-ui/components/dialog/search';
export default function CustomDialog(props: SharedProps) {
// your own logic here
return <SearchDialog {...props} />;
}To pass it to the Root Provider, you need a wrapper with use client directive.
'use client';
import { RootProvider } from 'fumadocs-ui/provider';
import dynamic from 'next/dynamic';
import type { ReactNode } from 'react';
const SearchDialog = dynamic(() => import('@/components/search')); // lazy load
export function Provider({ children }: { children: ReactNode }) {
return (
<RootProvider
search={{
SearchDialog,
}}
>
{children}
</RootProvider>
);
}Use it instead of your previous Root Provider
import { Provider } from './provider';
import type { ReactNode } from 'react';
export default function Layout({ children }: { children: ReactNode }) {
return (
<html lang="en">
<body>
<Provider>{children}</Provider>
</body>
</html>
);
}Other Solutions
Algolia
For the setup guide, see Integrate Algolia Search.
While generally we recommend building your own search with their client-side SDK, you can also plug the built-in dialog interface.
'use client';
import algo from 'algoliasearch/lite';
import type { SharedProps } from 'fumadocs-ui/components/dialog/search';
import SearchDialog from 'fumadocs-ui/components/dialog/search-algolia';
const client = algo('appId', 'apiKey');
const index = client.initIndex('indexName');
export default function CustomSearchDialog(props: SharedProps) {
return <SearchDialog index={index} {...props} />;
}-
Replace
appId,apiKeyandindexNamewith your desired values. -
Replace the default search dialog with your new component.
Note
The built-in implementation doesn't use instant search (their official javascript client).
Tag Filter
Same as default search client, you can configure Tag Filter on the dialog.
import SearchDialog from 'fumadocs-ui/components/dialog/search-algolia';
<SearchDialog
defaultTag="value"
tags={[
{
name: 'Tag Name',
value: 'value',
},
]}
/>;Orama Cloud
For the setup guide, see Integrate Orama Cloud.
'use client';
import { OramaClient } from '@oramacloud/client';
import type { SharedProps } from 'fumadocs-ui/components/dialog/search';
import SearchDialog from 'fumadocs-ui/components/dialog/search-orama';
const client = new OramaClient({
endpoint: 'endpoint',
api_key: 'apiKey',
});
export default function CustomSearchDialog(props: SharedProps) {
return <SearchDialog {...props} client={client} showOrama />;
}- Replace
endpoint,apiKeywith your desired values. - Replace the default search dialog with your new component.

Built-in UI
If you want to use the built-in search dialog UI instead of building your own,
you may use the SearchDialog component.
import {
SearchDialog,
type SharedProps,
} from 'fumadocs-ui/components/dialog/search';
export default function CustomSearchDialog(props: SharedProps) {
return <SearchDialog {...props} />;
}Unstable
It is an internal API, might break during iterations
