So you’re using SearchLogic?

You want to take a look at the SearchLogic GitHub Readme page:

So in your controller, you’ll want something like:

class UsersController < ApplicationController
def index
@search = User.search(params[:search])
@users = @search.all
end
end

And in the view, SearchLogic comes with built in named scopes to
search.

So let’s say you were working with users. And lets say you want to
search on the username.

<% form_for @search do |f| %>

Username:
<%= f.text_field :username_like %>

<%= f.submit 'Search' %> <% end %>

I hope this helps. Let me know if you have any questions.
