  • How to install search console

http://download.eclipse.org/e4/downloads/ -> 0.11 Stream Integration Builds -> Select the latest build you see there.If 404 not found is returned, select next latest build. Click on "online p2 repo link" - that is the update site.

The relevant category is "E4 Search". You can individally install the Search Console framework, the example search contributor, and the "Compatibility" feature (latter is explained below). Source features are also available on the site from build I20110809-2000 afterwards.


  • How to get search console source code

You can either install the source features from the update site (suitable if you want to develop an extension for search console), or fetch the sources from the Git repo, if you want to modify the sources / contribute back to the community.

Here are the links to our repository:

Web UI -https://git.eclipse.org/c/e4/org.eclipse.e4.search.git/

Clone URI - git://git.eclipse.org/gitroot/e4/org.eclipse.e4.search.git

The source code of an example search provider is under folder /examples in our repo. This can prove very useful if you want to implement a search provider.


  • Filing a bug

https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/enter_bug.cgi?product=e4&component=Search


  • Documentation

Developer guide - https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/attachment.cgi?id=180106


  • What are the version / distribution requirements

None, provided your eclipse is not too old. If you find incompatibilities, file a bug.


  • I wish to contribute

You're welcome! Follow the standard drill. It's easiest to open a bug with a patch on component E4/Search, or write directly to e4-dev@eclipse.org .

A good starting point for new contributors is http://wiki.eclipse.org/Development_Resources


  • Why am i seeing search types that do nothing?

Because it's work in progress. These are the compatibility search types, which adapt the extensions contributed to the org.eclipse.search.searchPages extension point, to the Search console framework.


  • How can I disable the compatibility search types?

Just deselect the Compatibility feature when installing. This is available from integration build I20110630-1005 afterwards.
