```
### Configuration options

- `appId` (required) your Algolia API App ID
- `apiKey` (required) your Algolia API Api key
- `indexes` (optional) you can specify indexes that will be automatically initialized and exposed by the plugin
- `indexPrefix` (optional) a prefix you want to apply to all index names, i.e to reflect your current environment (https://www.algolia.com/doc/node#different-environments)
- `clientOptions` (optional) see https://github.com/algolia/algoliasearch-client-js#client-options

## Usage

In your route handler :

```js

server.route({
method: "GET",
path: "/search/{term}",
handler: function(request, reply) {
const term = request.params.term;

// search in the "product" index, initialized in the configuration example
const productIndex = request.server.plugins['hapi-algolia-search'].indexes.Products;
productsIndex.search(term, function(err, results){
if(err) { return reply(err); } //please do a better error handling than this
reply(results);
// or reply(results.hits)
})

// or access the client directly for multiple indexes queries or other advanced stuff
// see the official client docs : https://github.com/algolia/algoliasearch-client-js

const algoliaClient = request.server.plugins['hapi-algolia-search'].client

client.search(.....
}
})

```
