How did I get Docusaurus2’s offline Lunr search to work?

Developing and maintaining technical documentation as code (Docs As Code) only gets better with Docusaurus.69 version.

This quick guide is for you if you want to enable Lunr search on your website for a better user experience, but are unable to proceed because of the swizzle error.

Well !!! npm install before the swizzle command is the way to go. It is now officially accepted on the website > here :)

Lunr search on the Docusaurus website

If the search yields no result, stop trying with yarn and build with npm run build and start the server with npx http-server ./build or npx http-server build.

Your local server runs on http://127.0.0.1:8080.

Note: Docusaurus search information can only be generated from a production build. Local development is currently not supported.

To begin with, you have already done the following:

1. Created a docusaurus project (npx @docusaurus/init@latest initi my-website classic)or migrated your project from an earlier version to .69 version (yarn upgrade @docusaurus/core@2.0.0-alpha.69 @docusaurus/preset-classic@2.0.0-alpha.69).
2. Installed Lunr search following the document.
