appbase.ioFlutter Searchbox provides UI widgets for building search UIs with ReactiveSearch, powered by Elasticsearch or OpenSearch
Flutter SearchBox #
flutter_searchbox provides declarative API to query Elasticsearch, and binds UI widgets with different types of search queries. As the name suggests, it provides a searchbox UI widget for Elasticsearch and Appbase.io.
Installation #
To install flutter_searchbox, please follow the following steps:
- Depend on it
Add this to your package's pubspec.yaml file:
dependencies:
flutter_searchbox: ^3.1.0
searchbase: ^3.4.0-beta
- Install it
You can install packages from the command line:
$ flutter pub get
Basic usage #
A simple example #
The following example renders an autosuggestion SearchBox with one custom widget SearchWidgetConnector to render the results. The result-widget watches the search-widget for input changes and updates its UI when the user selects a suggestion.

An example with a facet #
The following example renders one more custom widget with id author-filter to render a list of authors. This widget is being used by result-widget to filter the results data. The author-filter widget also reacts to the search-widget (check the react property) to update the authors list reactively whenever the search query changes.
