Search plugin just works for the default language about mkdocs-static-i18n HOT 5 CLOSED

@Caetan95 hi; sure it should not be a problem if you can provide me with an example and what you expect from it?

from mkdocs-static-i18n.

Thanks for your quick reply @ultrabug we really appreciate it.

I would expect to search in each language separately, so depending on which language I am, it will search into it.

Currently, the behavior is that it always searches in the default language (in your example, in English), and if I change to français it will continue searching in the English version. In addition, if I search for some French word (in the French version) that is present in the text it can't find anything, since as far as I understand it just searches into English files (the default language) without taking into account the language that is currently selected.

1. English language search

2. French language search (no results)

3. French language search (searching for English stuff)

So taking into account this example, I would expect that 2. French language search (no results) shows some results (as the word décrite appears in the files) and it would be nice too that 3. French language search (searching for English stuff) doesn't show any results from other languages (just the selected one, which is French in this screenshot), but maybe this last one is not as critical as the second one, the French language search with no results (by extension all languages that are not the default).

I would like to thank you again for your collaboration :)

FYI @Caetan95 the way the search plugin is implemented prevents us from having a search index per language.

I'm almost done with this, it works good on mkdocs 1.1.2 but not on 1.2... looking into it now.

Hello @ultrabug, thanks for your commitment. Just FYI, I have been testing the new mkdocs 1.2 release with your plugin and I haven't found any other conflict (apart from those that we have already discuss).

Thanks again for your work :)
