Using the Query Builder

The package provides a fluent query builder for more complex searches, including Gutenberg-specific filters. Chain methods together to build precise search queries with readable syntax.

Search with Gutenberg Content Filters

SearchJet automatically indexes Gutenberg block content. Use the query builder to search within specific block types or content sections.

use SearchJet\SearchJet;

$results = SearchJet::search('api integration')
    ->filter('post_type', 'post')
    ->filter('category', 'documentation')
    ->sortBy('date', 'desc')
    ->limit(10)
    ->get();

Advanced Filtering

Combine multiple filters to narrow results precisely. The query builder supports AND logic between filters and OR logic within a single filter field.

$results = SearchJet::search('search plugin')
    ->filter('tags', ['wordpress', 'search'])
    ->filter('author', 'admin')
    ->highlight(['title', 'content'])
    ->get();
