Algolia

Installation GuidePreview
  1. Install the hexo-algolia plugin under the root directory of your Hexo site.

  3. Next, click "API Keys" on the left navigation bar, copy "Application ID" and "Search-Only API Key" on the page. Open site configuration file _config.yml under the root directory of your Hexo site and fill in the above information to the hexo-algolia plugin configurations.

    {% img "box px-0 py-0 ml-auto mr-auto" /gallery/screenshots/algolia-api-keys.png 360 '"API Keys - Algolia" "API Keys - Algolia"' %}

    For example, the following Aloglia index information:

    {% codeblock "Algolia Index Information" %} Algolia Index Name: My-Hexo-Site Application ID: ABCDEFGHIJKL Search-Only API Key: 7b08fca7d42412cee901a25643124221 {% endcodeblock %}

    maps to the following plugin configuration:

    {% codeblock _config.yml lang:yaml %} algolia: applicationID: My-Hexo-Site indexName: ABCDEFGHIJKL apiKey: 7b08fca7d42412cee901a25643124221 {% endcodeblock %}

  4. Go back to the "API Keys" page from the Algolia dashboard and switch to the "All API Keys" tab. Click the "New API Key" button. On the popup "Create API Key" dialog, select the index you created in the last step in "Indices" select box. Then, add addObject, deleteObject, listIndexes, deleteIndex to the "ACL" field. Click the "Create" button to finish key creation. Copy the API key you just created, e.g., 727fbd8c998fe419318fa350db6793ca.

    {% img "box px-0 py-0 ml-auto mr-auto" /gallery/screenshots/algolia-create-api-key.png 360 '"Create API Key - Algolia" "Create API Key - Algolia"' %}

  5. Open a Windows Command Prompt (CMD) or Linux/macOS terminal and change the working directory to the root directory of your Hexo site. Set the HEXO_ALGOLIA_INDEXING_KEY environment variable to the API key you created in the last step. This variable is used by hexo-algolia when uploading indices to Algolia.

    On Windows:

    {% codeblock "Windows Command Prompt (CMD)" lang:cmd %} C:\Users\you> cd path/to/your/hexo/site C:\Users\you> set HEXO_ALGOLIA_INDEXING_KEY="727fbd8c998fe419318fa350db6793ca" {% endcodeblock %}

    On Linux/macOS:

    {% codeblock "Linux/macOS Terminal" lang:shell %} $ cd path/to/your/hexo/site $ export HEXO_ALGOLIA_INDEXING_KEY="727fbd8c998fe419318fa350db6793ca" {% endcodeblock %}

    Then, run the following commands to clean up your site and upload indices to Algolia:

    {% codeblock "Windows Command Prompt or Linux/macOS Terminal" lang:shell %} $ hexo clean $ hexo algolia {% endcodeblock %}

  6. Finally, set the search engine to Algolia in your theme configurations:

    {% codeblock themes/icarus/_config.yml lang:yaml %} search: type: algolia {% endcodeblock %}

Select the correct language from the "Language" select box. Then, fill in the "Name of the search engine". Click the "Create" button to finish engine creation.

    {% img "box px-0 py-0 ml-auto mr-auto" /gallery/screenshots/google-cse-create.png 360 '"Create Custom Search - Google CSE" "Create Custom Search - Google CSE"' %}

    For example, the following HTML code:

    {% codeblock "Google CSE HTML code" lang:html %}

    {% endcodeblock %}

    maps to the following theme configuration:
