I was recently asked to do a small to medium sized site for a family member. As I have been looking for some projects to work on I jumped at the chance. Among a number of other features that was required on the site, users needed to be able to search a listing of items. After quite a bit of looking round I stumbled upon binarylogic’s Searchlogic plugin for Ruby on Rails. This is a fantastic plugin for quick and simple searching that does not require a lot of work in regards to installation and setup. The github page is linked at the bottom. In this post I’ll give you a quick rundown of how to install and use this great plugin.
