# Omnisearch for Obsidian
|
|
|
|
_**This plugin is in an early beta state.** It's usable, but things may break, features are missing, configuration is non-existent, etc._
|
|
|
|
_If you experience what you consider to be bug or performance problem, please [open an issue](https://github.com/scambier/obsidian-omnisearch/issues)._
|

|
|
|
|
**Omnisearch** aims to provide a fast, unobtrusive, and "intelligent" search interface for Obsidian. Under the hood, it uses the excellent [MiniSearch](https://github.com/lucaong/minisearch) library.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
## Installation
|
|
|
|
Omnisearch is not yet available on the official community plugins repository. You can manually download the `scambier.obsidian-omnisearch-x.y.z.zip` file from the [releases page](https://github.com/scambier/obsidian-omnisearch/releases) and unzip it in your `.obsidian/plugins` folder.
|
|
|
|
## Features
|
|
|
|
- Automatic document scoring using the [BM25 algorithm](https://github.com/lucaong/minisearch/issues/129#issuecomment-1046257399).
|
|
- Your notes are split into different fields (filename, title, body) that are weighted differently to sort the results.
|
|
- Get results as you type
|
|
- Highlight matching query terms
|
|
- Fuzzy/partial search, resistance to typos
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
## Motivation
|
|
|
|
Obsidian works best with a well-organized vault, but most of my notes are unrelated tidbits of knowledge and code snippets, without tags, links, of even folders.
|
|
|
|
Since I like to favor "search over organization", I wanted to make a search interface that would be useful for me. |
