A way to get results with highlighted content?

Hello @DomDew,

I wonder if there is a way to get results with highlighted content?

(like in https://github.com/farzher/fuzzysort#fuzzysorthighlightresult-openb-closeb)

Thanks!

Hey @maximelebreton ,

Sadly not at the moment, would be a cool feature though.

I sadly do not have too much time on my hands right now with work getting in the way.
Would you be up for making a PR that includes this feature? Would be awesome! 😄

Hey @maximelebreton. I've just implemented this feature 🙂.
For now the endpoint will return a searchMeta key, which exposes { score: number, indexes: number[] }. I won't return the highlight(s) for now as they are exposed from fuzzysort, as I think the implementation would be a bit brittle with sending raw html through the server client boundary. With the indexes it should be possible to just implement any solution on your own in the client 🙂.
