title: "Search"

|
Quartz supports two modes of searching through content.
|
||
|
|
||
|
## Full-text
|
||
|
Full-text search is the default in Quartz. It produces results that *exactly* match the search query. This is easier to setup but usually produces lower quality matches.
|
||
|
|
||
|
```yaml {title="data/config.yaml"}
|
||
|
# the default option
|
||
|
enableSemanticSearch: false
|
||
|
```
|
||
|
|
||
|
## Natural Language
|
||
|
Natural language search is powered by [Operand](https://operand.ai/). It understands language like a person does and finds results that best match user intent. In this sense, it is closer to how Google Search works.
|
||
|
|
||
|
Natural language search tends to produce higher quality results than full-text search.
|
||
|
|
||
|
Here's how to set it up.
|
||
|
|
||
|
1. Create an Operand Account on [their website](https://operand.ai/).
|
||
|
2. Go to Dashboard > Settings > Integrations.
|
||
|
3. Follow the steps to setup the GitHub integration. Operand needs access to GitHub in order to index your digital garden properly!
|
||
|
4. Head over to Dashboard > Objects and press `(Cmd + K)` to open the omnibar and select 'Create Collection'.
|
||
|
1. Set the 'Collection Label' to something that will help you remember it.
|
||
|
2. You can leave the 'Parent Collection' field empty.
|
||
|
5. Click into your newly made Collection.
|
||
|
1. Press the 'share' button that looks like three dots connected by lines.
|
||
|
2. Set the 'Interface Type' to `object-search` and click 'Create'.
|
||
|
3. This will bring you to a new page with a search bar. Ignore this for now.
|
||
|
6. Go back to Dashboard > Settings > API Keys and find your Quartz-specific Operand API key under 'Other keys'.
|
||
|
1. Copy the key (which looks something like `0e733a7f-9b9c-48c6-9691-b54fa1c8b910`).
|
||
|
2. Open `data/config.yaml`. Set `enableSemanticSearch` to `true` and `operandApiKey` to your copied key.
|
||
|
|
||
|
```yaml {title="data/config.yaml"}
|
||
|
# the default option
|
||
|
enableSemanticSearch: true
|
||
|
operandApiKey: "0e733a7f-9b9c-48c6-9691-b54fa1c8b910"
|
||
|
```
|
||
|
7. Make a commit and push your changes to GitHub. See the [[notes/hosting|hosting]] page if you haven't done this already.
|
||
|
1. This step is *required* for Operand to be able to properly index your content.
|
||
|
2. Head over to Dashboard > Objects and select the collection that you made earlier
|
||
|
8. Press `(Cmd + K)` to open the omnibar again and select 'Create GitHub Repo'
|
||
|
1. Set the 'Repository Label' to `Quartz`
|
||
|
2. Set the 'Repository Owner' to your GitHub username
|
||
|
3. Set the 'Repository Ref' to `master`
|
||
|
4. Set the 'Repository Name' to the name of your repository (usually just `quartz` if you forked the repository without changing the name)
|
||
|
5. Leave 'Root Path' and 'Root URL' empty
|
||
|
9. Wait for your repository to index and enjoy natural language search in Quartz!
