search functionality?

[cs01]

Really loving pdoc, it has everything I would expected in a doc generation tool except for Search.

An example of a tool that does it really well is mkdocs with the mkdocs-material theme. Example docs: https://www.starlette.io/.

Any chance of something like this coming to pdoc?

I guess there is if somebody implements it. 😃

Is Google Custom Search or a straighforward Google search with user-specified site: / inurl: operators appended to the query an option?

This could be a really nice feature and would be something I'm interested in implementing once I have finished my thesis this summer.

A basic method of implementation is to place all the parsed documentation into a single file with links to the places in other files. Then some javascript can search this on the frontend.

Can we re-open this issue? Seems like a really nice feature.

Some of it was added in 8535421, thus closed. What you propose is tracked as #184. 👍
