Integration with @backstage/plugin-search

Enable questions indexing in the search engine by the following changes. See setup first to integrate the plugin with backstage instance.

import { createBackend } from '@backstage/backend-defaults';

const backend = createBackend();
backend.add(import('@backstage/search-backend'));
backend.add(import('@drodil/backstage-plugin-search-backend-module-qeta'));

backend.start();

In the new frontend system, the Q&A search result item is registered automatically when @drodil/backstage-plugin-qeta is added to your app features.

Custom Routes

If you have mounted the Qeta plugin to a custom route in your application, you must configure the qeta.route setting to ensure that search results link to the correct location:

# app-config.yaml
qeta:
  route: 'custom-route' # Use your custom route instead of the default 'qeta'

This ensures that indexed search results will generate URLs like /custom-route/questions/123 instead of the default /qeta/questions/123.

Note: This configuration must match the route where you mounted the Qeta plugin in your frontend application.
