**Omnisearch** is a search engine that "_just works_".
|
|
It always instantly shows you the most relevant results, thanks to its smart weighting algorithm.
|
|
|
|
Under the hood, it uses the excellent [MiniSearch](https://github.com/lucaong/minisearch) library.

## Documentation
|
|
|
|
https://publish.obsidian.md/omnisearch/Index
|
|
|
|
## Installation
|
|
|
|
- Omnisearch is available on [the official Community Plugins repository](https://obsidian.md/plugins?search=Omnisearch).
|
|
- Beta releases can be installed through [BRAT](https://github.com/TfTHacker/obsidian42-brat). **Be advised that those
|
|
versions can be buggy and break things.**
|
|
|
|
You can check the [CHANGELOG](./CHANGELOG.md) for more information on the different versions.
|
|
|
|
## Features
|
|
|
|
> Omnisearch's first goal is to _locate_ files instantly. You can see it as a _Quick Switcher_ on steroids.
|
|
|
|
- Find your **📝notes, 📄PDFs, and 🖼images** faster than ever
|
|
- Images and PDF indexing is available
|
|
through [Text Extractor](https://github.com/scambier/obsidian-text-extractor)
|
|
- Automatic document scoring using
|
|
the [BM25 algorithm](https://github.com/lucaong/minisearch/issues/129#issuecomment-1046257399)
|
|
- The relevance of a document against a query depends on the number of times the query terms appear in the document,
|
|
its filename, and its headings
|
|
- Keyboard first: you never have to use your mouse
|
|
- Workflow similar to the "Quick Switcher" core plugin
|
|
- Opt-in local HTTP server to query Omnisearch from outside of Obsidian
|
|
- Resistance to typos
|
|
- Switch between Vault and In-file search to quickly skim multiple results in a single note
|
|
- Supports `"expressions in quotes"` and `-exclusions`
|
|
- Filters file types with '.jpg' or '.md'
|
|
- Directly Insert a `[[link]]` from the search results
|
|
- Supports Vim navigation keys
|
|
|
|
**Note:** support of Chinese, Japanese, Korean, etc. depends
|
|
on [this additional plugin](https://github.com/aidenlx/cm-chs-patch). Please read its documentation for more
|
|
information.
