Add custom Source to SearchWP

This example Source is modeled upon a custom database table. See lines 46-50 for usage of this particular hook.

<?php
/**
* Adds custom SearchWP\Source for MyCustomSearchWPSource which uses a custom database table.
*/
add_action( 'plugins_loaded', function() {
class MyCustomSearchWPSource extends \SearchWP\Source {
// Unique name for this Source.
protected $name = 'mycustomsource';
// Database column name that provides a unique ID for each entry of the Source.
protected $db_id_column = 'id';
function __construct() {
global $wpdb;
// The database table storing entries.
$this->db_table = $wpdb->get_blog_prefix() . 'my_db_table';
// Labels for this Source.
$this->labels = [
'plural' => 'My Custom Source Entries',
'singular' => 'My Custom Source Entry',
];
// Attributes for this Source. Array of attributes, can be expanded.
$this->attributes = [ [
'name' => 'content',
'label' => 'Entry Content',
'default' => \SearchWP\Utils::get_min_engine_weight(),
'data' => function( $entry_id ) {
// Note: MyWidget is an pseudo-class meant to represent
// a class you're using that represents something like
// WP_Post in that it models the data you are working with.
// Long story short: this method should return the content
// you want to index and make searchable in SearchWP.
return MyWidget::get_content( $entry_id );
},
], ];
}
// Returns a native object e.g. formatted in a way you expect.
public function entry( \SearchWP\Entry $entry, $query = false ) {
// Note: MyWidget is a pseudo-class meant to represent a class
// you're using that represents something like WP_Post in that it
// models the data you're working with.
// Long story short: this method should return whatever it is you
// expect when working 'natively' with your data e.g. for WordPress
// pages a WP_Post is returned. Note that $entry->get_id() returns
// the value in the $db_id_column for this Source.
return new MyWidget( $entry->get_id() );
}
}
// Append this Source to the list of available Sources in SearchWP.
add_filter( 'searchwp\sources', function( $sources ) {
$sources[] = new MyCustomSearchWPSource();
return $sources;
} );
} );
