Integrate Find (#1834)
## Purpose

integrate Find to Docs

## Proposal

- [x]  add a `useSeachDocs` hook in charged of calling the search
endpoint.
- [x]  add a optional `path` param to the `search` route. This param
represents the parent document path in case of a sub-documents
(descendants) search.
- [x] ️return Indexer results directly without DB calls to retrieve the
Document objects. All informations necessary for display are indexed in
Find. We can skip the DB calls and improve performance.
- [x] ♻️ refactor react `DocSearchContent` components.
`DocSearchContent` and `DocSearchSubContent` are now merged a unique
component handling all search scenarios and relying on the unique
`search` route.
- [x] 🔥remove pagination logic in the Indexer. Removing the DB calls
also removes the DRF queryset object which handles the pagination. Also
we consider pagination not to be necessary for search v1.
- [x] 🔥remove the `document/<document_id>/descendants` route. This route
is not used anymore. The logic of finding the descendants are moved to
the internal `_list_descendants` method. This method is based on the
parent `path` instead of the parent `id` which has some consequence
about the user access management. Relying on the path prevents the use
of the `self.get_object()` method which used to handle the user access
logic.
- [x] handle fallback logic on DRF based title search in case of
non-configured, badly configured or failing at run time indexer.
- [x] handle language extension in `title` field. Find returns titles
with a language extension (ex: `{ title.fr: "rapport d'activité" }`
instead of `{ "title": "rapport d'activité" }`.
- [x] 🔧 add a `common.test` file to allow running the tests without
docker
- [x] ♻️ rename `SearchIndexer` -> `FindDocumentIndexer`. This class has
to do with Find in particular and the convention is more coherent with
`BaseDocumentIndexer`
- [x] ♻️ rename `SEARCH_INDEXER_URL` -> `INDEXING_URL` and
`SEARCH_INDEXER_QUERY_URL` -> `SEARCH_URL`. I found the original names
very confusing.
- [x] 🔧 update the environment variables to activate the
FindDocumentIndexer.
- [x] automate the generation of encryption key during bootstrap.
OIDC_STORE_REFRESH_TOKEN_KEY is a mandatory secret key. We can not push
it on Github and we want any contributor to be able to run the app by
only running the `make bootstrap`. We chose to generate and wright it
into the `common.local` during bootstrap.

# La Suite Docs: Collaborative Text Editing
**Docs, where your notes can become knowledge through live collaboration.**
Docs is an open-source collaborative editor that helps teams write, organize, and share knowledge together - in real time.
![Live collaboration demo](/docs/assets/docs_live_collaboration_light.gif)
## What is Docs?
Docs is an open-source alternative to tools like Notion or Google Docs, focused on:
- Real-time collaboration
- Clean, structured documents
- Knowledge organization
- Data ownership & self-hosting
***Built for public organizations, companies, and open communities.***
## Why use Docs?
### Writing
- Rich-text & Markdown editing
- Slash commands & block system
- Beautiful formatting
- Offline editing
- Optional AI writing helpers (rewrite, summarize, translate, fix typos)
### Collaboration
- Live cursors & presence
- Comments & sharing
- Granular access control
### Knowledge management
- Subpages & hierarchy
- Searchable content
### Export/Import & interoperability
- Import to `.docx` and `.md`
- Export to `.docx`, `.odt`, `.pdf`
## Try Docs
Experience Docs instantly - no installation required.
- 🔗 [Open a live demo document][demo]
- 🌍 [Browse public instances][instances]
[demo]: https://docs.la-suite.eu/docs/9137bbb5-3e8a-4ff7-8a36-fcc4e8bd57f4/
[instances]: /docs/instances.md
## Self-hosting
Docs supports Kubernetes, Docker Compose, and community-provided methods such as Nix and YunoHost.
Get started with self-hosting: [Installation guide](/docs/installation/README.md)
> [!WARNING]
> Some advanced features (for example: `Export as PDF`) rely on XL packages from Blocknote.
> These packages are licensed under GPL and are **not MIT-compatible**
>
> You can run Docs **without these packages** by building with:
>
> ```bash
> PUBLISH_AS_MIT=true
> ```
>
> This builds an image of Docs without non-MIT features.
>
> More details can be found in [environment variables](/docs/env.md)
## Local Development (for contributors)
Run Docs locally for development and testing.
> [!WARNING]
> This setup is intended **for development and testing only**.
> It uses Minio as an S3-compatible storage backend, but any S3-compatible service can be used.
### Prerequisites
- Docker
- Docker Compose
- GNU Make
Verify installation:
```bash
docker -v
docker compose version
```
> If you encounter permission errors, you may need to use `sudo`, or add your user to the `docker` group.
### Bootstrap the project
The easiest way to start is using GNU Make:
```bash
make bootstrap FLUSH_ARGS='--no-input'
```
This builds the `app-dev` and `frontend-dev` containers, installs dependencies, runs database migrations, and compiles translations.
It is recommended to run this command after pulling new code.
Start services:
```bash
make run
```
Open <https://localhost:3000>
Default credentials (development only):
```md
username: impress
password: impress
```
### Frontend development mode
For frontend work, running outside Docker is often more convenient:
```bash
make frontend-development-install
make run-frontend-development
```
### Backend only
Starting all services except the frontend container:
```bash
make run-backend
```
### Tests & Linting
```bash
make frontend-test
make frontend-lint
```
Backend tests can be run without docker. This is useful to configure PyCharm or VSCode to do it.
Removing docker for testing requires to overwrite some URL and port values that are different in and out of
Docker. `env.d/development/common` contains all variables, some of them having to be overwritten by those in
`env.d/development/common.test`.
### Demo content
Create a basic demo site:
```bash
make demo
```
### More Make targets
To check all available Make rules:
```bash
make help
```
### Django admin
Create a superuser:
```bash
make superuser
```
Admin UI: <http://localhost:8071/admin>
