  • An expression to generate the title of the search results
  • The type to be displayed in the results
  • An expression to generate the description of the search results
  • An expression to generate the searchable text (including conversion from HTML if needed) or
  • The name of a custom method to generate the searchable text

The library includes app behaviors including:

  • An event handler to create the full text search table
  • An endpoint to update all search results
  • An endpoint to performance the search
