API endpoint and UI for blockbuilder search page
This repo is split into two main parts, the API endpoint and the search page. It is currently only really designed to be called from within blockbuilder, in order to develop a potentially complicated feature that has new backend requirements.
This is an express endpoint which calls ElasticSearch and returns the results.
This is a small react app using redux.

Follow the steps in the Setup Elasticsearch & Index some Gists section of the blockbuilder-search-index project
These steps guide us through setting up, installing, and running a local Elasticsearch instance that we can populate with blocks. The blocks data is retrieved from Github and stored as static json files, before being loaded into our Elasticsearch index. Once our search index is up, running, and populated, we're reading to query it with a web ui.
we'll use npm link to make sure that blockbuilder always shows the latest local build of the blockbuilder-search UI. this is a one-time setup step.
cd blockbuilder-search
npm link
cd ../blockbuilder
npm link blockbuilder-search
...and rebuild the bundle on each change. npm link will make sure that those changes propogate to the blockbuilder project.
cd blockbuilder-search
npm run buildWatch
Now we can open a web browser and visit local blockbuilder search http://[::]:8889/search
