[Feature Request] Support Unicode / Emoji search

JawadN00r opened this issue · 1 comments

Any plan to support search of unicode languages like Bangla (বাংলা) , characters like ö or emoji 🌲 ?

I guess it's hard to have. there are two componets of the searching function.

  1. When use zola to build from converting markdown files for your ob notes, zola will passthough the contents and make a indexing .js file for searching.
  2. use elasticlunr to comparing what you typing in, comparing and return the results.

the elasticlunr did'nt update in past 3 years. but there are some multi language comparing plugin repo right now. if you are farmilar with js, it will take no long time to modified the search.js to support the multilingual comparing.
But again you should also know something about rust, since the indexinig file generate from zola will just provided for specific language. Without the indexing file, your comparing engine will just find nothing to compare
