Renders search on GOV.UK:

• Site search is available from the header of every page.
• Finder pages provide facetted searching over a collection of documents.
• Most of these pages support subscribing to email alerts.

• gov.uk/aaib-reports
• gov.uk/drug-device-alerts
• gov.uk/government/case-studies
• gov.uk/government/people
• gov.uk/world/organisations
• gov.uk/international-development-funding

• Finder: Page containing a list of filterable documents and filters.
• Facets: Metadata associated with documents. See app/models/*_facet.rb for examples.
• Filters: Searchable/filterable metadata for example case_state={open|closed} for a CMA case.
• Parser: Transforms API responses into model objects.

This is a Ruby on Rails app, and should follow our Rails app conventions.

You can use the GOV.UK Docker environment or the local startup.sh script to run the app. Read the guidance on local frontend development to find out more about each approach, before you get started.

• govuk-docker-up builds finder-frontend and all its dependent applications
• govuk-docker-up app-live builds finder-frontend pointing at the production content store and search stack
• govuk-docker-up app-integration builds finder-frontend pointing at the integration content store and search stack
• govuk-docker-up app-live-local-search builds finder-frontend pointing at the live content store and a local version of search api.

If you are using GOV.UK Docker, remember to prefix the commands that follow with govuk-docker-run. See the GOV.UK Docker usage instructions for examples.

# run all the tests
bundle exec rake

# run only feature tests
bundle exec cucumber

# run only JS tests
bundle exec rake jasmine:ci
