API Reference JavaScript SDK React SearchuseSearch

useSearch

A React hook that instantiates your Search Client.

import { useSearch } from 'basehub/react-search'

Arguments

Key	Type	Description
`_searchKey`	`string`	Required. The search key from the block where you want to do search. The client will have access to all indexed fields under the corresponding block (and its instances in a case of a component).
`queryBy`	`string[]`	Required. An array with the field keys you want to search by.
`saveRecentSearches`	`SaveRecentSearches`	An object that accepts a `key` and a `getStorage` callback. Useful when you want to save recent searches into localStorage or similar.

BaseHub Search uses TypeSense on the background. You can check out all the search options on their documentation. Keep in mind that they’re all on camelCase in the useSearch hook. E.g: filter_by is listed as filterBy.
