Simple Algolia w/ Hugo

The following allows you to easily generate an Algolia index with Hugo consisting of whatever front matter metadata you like.

Why this compared to other plugins?

There are plugins that generate indexes using NPM packages or other tools. The issue is that they don't have any context to your site configuration or Hugo's internals, so they may miss pages or index pages that should not be indexed.

Using Hugo means your index has the full context of your site available when being generated.

Generating Index

To generate the index you create the index's layout at layouts/_default/list.algolia.json.

Factor/Selector	Example	Value
!important	color: red !important;	+10000
Inline style tag	<div style='color: red;'></div>	+1000
ID selectors	#myId { color: red; }	+100
Class selectors	.myClass { color: red; }	+10
Attribute selectors	[title='Example title'] { color: red; }	+10
Pseudo-class selectors	:hover { color: red; }	+10
Pseudo-selectors	::before { color: red; } / ::after { color: red; }	+1
Element/Tag selectors	div { color: red; }	+1
Source order	div { color: blue; } div { color: red; }	+1
