The current hugo supports the output format to export the json for the local search but only english words. If the content is Chinese, how to modify the output format to support the chinese search?

I’m using Fuse search on a Japanese site so it should work.

You also have to make a custom output format in json to act as the search index.

Edit: sorry, I misremembered it even. I used Fuse, not lunr.

Hi Rick,

The fuse.js is easy to integrate with the hugo workflow to support the chinese search, thanks for your information.
