Using Umbraco And Getting Started

Umbraco 9

Hi, I am wondering how to add searchers in Umbraco 10.

Currently I am trying to implement a basic site search with the following code:

@using Umbraco.Cms.Web.Common.PublishedModels;
@inherits Umbraco.Cms.Web.Common.Views.UmbracoViewPage
@using ContentModels = Umbraco.Cms.Web.Common.PublishedModels;
@using Examine
@inject IExamineManager ExamineManager
@{
    Layout = "Master.cshtml";
}

@{
    var query = Context.Request.Query["q"];
    var canGetSearcher = ExamineManager.TryGetSearcher("ExternalSearcher", out var searcher);
    var count = ExamineManager.RegisteredSearchers.Any();

    <p>@count</p>
    if (canGetSearcher)
    {
        <p>here</p>
        var searchResults = searcher.Search(query.ToString());
        if(searchResults.Any())
        {
            <ul>
                @foreach (var result in searchResults)
                {
                    if (result.Id != null)
                    {
                        var node = Umbraco.Content(result.Id);
                        <li>
                            <a href="@node.Url()">@node.Name</a>
                        </li>
                    }
                }
            </ul>
        }
    }
}

I don't see that I have available "searchers" in the back office. I do see the indexes, of course. How do I add a searcher?

You have to add your seacher to Startup.cs:

public void ConfigureServices(IServiceCollection services) {
    services.AddUmbraco(_env, _config)
            .AddBackOffice()
            .AddWebsite()
            .AddComposers()
            .Build();

    services.AddExamineLuceneMultiSearcher("<seacherName>", new[] { Umbraco.Cms.Core.Constants.UmbracoIndexes.ExternalIndexName, PdfIndexConstants.PdfIndexName });

}

You should then be able to use the seacher in code:

if (_examineManager.TryGetSearcher("<seacherName>", out var searcher)) {

... }

Thank you so much Lars for your reply, I am using the same solution like this:
```
builder.Services.AddExamineLuceneMultiSearcher("ExternalSearcher", new[] { Constants.UmbracoIndexes.ExternalIndexName });
```
How ever, doesn't this externalsearcher have to come default? ( just like in umbraco 7 and 8 ). Is there any configuration setting that enables it in Umbraco 10?

You must register the seacher in startup before you can see it under Examine Management.

        public void ConfigureServices(IServiceCollection services) {
        services.AddUmbraco(_env, _config)
                .AddBackOffice()
                .AddWebsite()
                .AddComposers()
                .Build();

        services.AddExamineLuceneMultiSearcher("<seacherName>", new[] { Umbraco.Cms.Core.Constants.UmbracoIndexes.ExternalIndexName, PdfIndexConstants.PdfIndexName });
    }
