Search does not appear if srcDir config is specified in vitepress config

[adarshmadrecha]

Better title of this issue could be "Support for srcDir config"

Just adding the key srcDir in the config will cause the Search component to disappear from the website.

// file: .vitepress\config.js
import { defineConfig } from 'vitepress'

// https://vitepress.dev/reference/site-config
export default defineConfig({
  srcDir: './book', 
  title: "My Awesome Book",   
  }
})

This issue could be because the plugin is specifically looking only at root directory.

Ref: https://github.com/emersonbottero/vitepress-plugin-search/blob/460a8561047cb7d561e7cfbc429088198c043562/src/index.ts#L52

So, in order to support srcDir option, it should be modified to

 return await IndexSearch(config.base, options);

@adarshmadrecha , @pranali98-cpu you are doing something wrong. the base has other function , it only has meaning after deploying the page. is used to handle subdomains.

@pranali98-cpu , your example has the wrong script, when not using the default docs you must specify the origin.

like vitepress dev book.

close this issue if the above fix your problem
