Instant Search Plugin for Zim Wiki

Search as you type in Zim, in similar manner to OneNote Ctrl+E.

When you hit Ctrl+E, small window opens, you can type in. As you type third letter, every page that matches your search is listed. You can walk through by UP/DOWN arrow, hit Enter to stay on the page, or Esc to cancel. Much quicker than current Zim search.

Working with & Feedback

Known to work on:

  • Ubuntu 17.04 Zim 0.67+
  • Ubuntu 15.10 Zim 0.65+
  • Win 7 Zim 0.63+
  • Debian 8.9 Zim 0.62-3, 0.65-4, 0.67-1

I'd be glad to hear from you if it's working either here in the issues or in the original bug https://bugs.launchpad.net/zim/+bug/1409626 .

Installation

Same as for the other plugins.

  • Put the instantsearch.py into the plugins folder
    • something like %appdata%\zim\data\zim\plugins in Win, or /~/.local/share/zim/plugins/ in Linux
  • You enable the plugin in Zim/Edit/Preferences/Plugins/ check mark Instant search.
  • Type Ctrl+E and see if it's working, or report it here

Demonstration on YouTube

Wanna see how it looks in action? In this example, I just search for the string "linux f" twice. Demonstration
