This plugin adds support for displaying media in GNU MediaGoblin based on simple search queries. In its current state, the search function will query the title and description fields of processed media entries for the exact input phrase (case-insensitive). Multiple search terms are searched with a match on any term included in the results.
This plugin relies on the header_extra template hook which was
introduced in the MediaGoblin 0.7.2-dev codebase. If you're running a
previous version of GNU MediaGoblin, the search link will not appear on
your instance unless you apply the change in commit aa50cab_.

[[mediagoblin.plugins.basicsearch]]The search plugin adds a search link to the top header bar of the MediaGoblin instance. You may specify the display style of the search link in your mediagoblin config file. There are three options for the search link display style.
link displays a normal text link next to the Log In link. This is
the default display style.
button displays an action button link next to the Log In link.
none does not display a link. This is useful if you want to
create your own search link in a user_dev template or custom theme.
If you choose to specify the display style, add it to your mediagoblin.ini file like this.
::
[[mediagoblin.plugins.basicsearch]] SEARCH_LINK_STYLE = 'link'
If you choose style none and wish to create your own search link,
use the syntax below as a guide.
