Extends the esse search to use jbuilder as the default template engine.

Add this line to your application's Gemfile:

gem 'esse-jbuilder'

And then execute:

$ bundle install

This gem adds the search_view_path configuration option to the Esse::Config class.

Esse.configure do |config|
  config.search_view_path = 'app/searches'
end

This options is used to set the default path where the search templates are located. The default value is app/searches.

The block passed to the search method will be evaluated in the context of a JbuilderTemplate instance.

# Single index
@search = UsersIndex.search(params[:q]) do |json|
  json.query do
    json.match do
      json.set! 'name', params[:q]
    end
  end
end

# Multiple indexes
@search = Esse.cluster.search(CitiesIndex, CountiesIndex) do |json|
  json.query do
    json.match do
      json.set! 'name', params[:q]
    end
  end
end

example using partials

CitiesIndex.search do |json|
  json.query do
    json.bool do
      json.must do
        json.child! do
          json.match do
            json.set! 'name', params[:q]
          end
        end
        if (states = params[:state_abbr])
          json.child! do
            json.partial! 'shared/terms_field', field: 'state_abbr', values: state_abbr
          end
        end
      end
    end
  end
  json.aggs do
    json.states do
      json.partial! 'shared/field_aggregation', field: 'state_abbr'
    end
  end
end

For more advanced rendering, you can also use the standalone Esse::Jbuilder::Template or Esse::Jbuilder::ViewTemplate classes.

• Esse::Jbuilder::Template - This class is used to render a template block.
• Esse::Jbuilder::ViewTemplate - This class is used to render a template from a file. Note that you must have the jbuilder template handler registered in your Rails application.

This brings a very powerful to create searcher classes. Example:

class Searchers::CitiesSearcher
  extend Forwardable
  def_delegators :search, :results

  def initialize(params)
    @params = params.transform_keys(&:to_sym)
  end

  private

  attr_reader :params

  def search
    CitiesIndex.search(body: body).limit(params[:limit] || 10).offset(params[:offset] || 0)
  end

  def body
    Esse::Jbuilder::ViewTemplate.call('cities/search', **params)
  end
end

Searchers::CitiesSearcher.new(params).results
