Enable search across whole site for child theme.

Have you changed your site content structure so that your markdown no longer lives in the content/en/docs folder, and now your search doesn't work? Are you also using the Doks Child Theme? Here's how to get your search working again.

1. From the root of your project, create a new folder called assets/js:

   mkdir -p assets/js

2. Copy the index.js file from the Doks NPM package into this new folder:

   cp node_modules/@hyas/doks/assets/js/index.js assets/js

3. Edit this new index.js file by replacing line 97 {{ $list := (.Site.Pages) -}}.

   So this:

   {{ $list := (where .Site.Pages "Section" "docs") -}}

   Becomes this:

   {{ $list := (.Site.Pages) -}}

4. Edit layouts/partials/header/header.html by replacing line 98 or 112 (depending on your Doks version) with {{ if not .IsHome -}}.

   So this:

   {{ end -}} 
   
   {{ if eq .Section "docs" -}}
   <nav class="doks-subnavbar py-2 sticky-lg-top{{ if eq .Site.Params.options.flexSearch false }} d-lg-none{{ end }}" aria-label="Secondary navigation">

   Becomes this:

   {{ end -}} 
   
   {{ if not .IsHome -}}
   <nav class="doks-subnavbar py-2 sticky-lg-top{{ if eq .Site.Params.options.flexSearch false }} d-lg-none{{ end }}" aria-label="Secondary navigation">

5. Edit layouts/partials/footer/header.html by replacing lines 77 and 102 with {{ if and (.Site.Params.options.flexSearch) (not .IsHome) -}}.

   So for line 77 this:

   {{ end -}}
   {{ if and (.Site.Params.options.flexSearch) (eq .Section "docs") -}}
     <script src="{{ $index.RelPermalink }}" defer></script>
   {{ end -}}

   Becomes this:

   {{ end -}}
     {{ if and (.Site.Params.options.flexSearch) (not .IsHome) -}}
       <script src="{{ $index.RelPermalink }}" defer></script>
   {{ end -}}

   And for line 102, this:

   {{ end -}}
   {{ if and (.Site.Params.options.flexSearch) (eq .Section "docs") -}}
     <script src="{{ $index.Permalink }}" integrity="{{ $index.Data.Integrity }}" crossorigin="anonymous" defer></script>
   {{ end -}}

   Becomes this:

   {{ end -}}
   {{ if and (.Site.Params.options.flexSearch) (not .IsHome) -}}
     <script src="{{ $index.Permalink }}" integrity="{{ $index.Data.Integri    ty }}" crossorigin="anonymous" defer></script>
   {{ end -}}

This should make it so that the search bar works across all your pages, not just the ones in the content/en/docs folder.

This hack will likely become redundant in the next Doks version though.
