## Details
### Customise Search Results
You have to add a template that will be shown when the results are loaded.
```html
<adf-search [searchTerm]="searchTerm">
<ng-template let-result>
<ul>
<li *ngFor="let item of result?.list?.entries">
{{ item?.entry.name }}
</li>
</ul>
</ng-template>
</adf-search>
```
The results are provided via the [$implicit variable of angular2](https://angular.io/api/common/NgTemplateOutlet) and can be accessed via the sugar sintax 'let-yourChosenName'. As per example above the result will be something like :
![adf-search-control](docassets/images/search-component-simple-template.png)
But you can define even a more complex template :
```html
<adf-search class="adf-search-result-autocomplete"
[rootNodeId]="liveSearchRoot"
[resultType]="liveSearchResultType"
[resultSort]="liveSearchResultSort"
[maxResults]="liveSearchMaxResults">
<ng-template let-data>
<mat-list *ngIf="isSearchBarActive()" id="autocomplete-search-result-list">
<mat-list-item
*ngFor="let item of data?.list?.entries; let idx = index"
id="result_option_{{idx}}"
[tabindex]="0"
(focus)="onFocus($event)"
(blur)="onBlur($event)"
class="adf-search-autocomplete-item"
(click)="elementClicked(item)"
(keyup.enter)="elementClicked(item)">
<mat-icon mat-list-icon>
<img [src]="getMimeTypeIcon(item)" />
</mat-icon>
<h4 mat-line id="result_name_{{idx}}"
*ngIf="highlight; else elseBlock"
class="adf-search-fixed-text"
[innerHtml]="item.entry.name | highlight: searchTerm">
{{ item?.entry.name }}</h4>
<ng-template #elseBlock>
<h4 class="adf-search-fixed-text" mat-line id="result_name_{{idx}}" [innerHtml]="item.entry.name"></h4>
</ng-template>
<p mat-line class="adf-search-fixed-text"> {{item?.entry.createdByUser.displayName}} </p>
</mat-list-item>
<mat-list-item
id="search_no_result"
*ngIf="data?.list?.entries.length === 0">
<p mat-line class="adf-search-fixed-text">{{ 'SEARCH.RESULTS.NONE' | translate:{searchTerm: searchTerm} }}</p>
</mat-list-item>
</mat-list>
</ng-template>
</adf-search>
```
Which will look like :
![adf-search-control](docassets/images/search-component-complex-template.png)
### Attach an input field to the search
You can also attach your input field to the adf-search component via the trigger [searchAutocomplete]
Yuo can do this by exporting the adf-search panel instance into a local template variable (here we called it "search"), and binding that variable to the input's searchAutocomplete property.
```html
<input type="text" [searchAutocomplete]="search">
<adf-search #search="searchAutocomplete">
<ng-template let-result>
<span *ngFor="let item of result?.list?.entries">
{{ item?.entry.name }}
</span>
</ng-template>
</adf-search>
```
In this way it is possible to fetch the results from the word typed into the input text straight into the adf-search component via the custom template variable.
### Custom search configuration
You can get finer control over the parameters of a search by defining them in a custom
[QueryBody](https://github.com/Alfresco/alfresco-js-api/blob/1.6.0/src/alfresco-search-rest-api/docs/QueryBody.md)
object. The recommended way to do this is with a custom implementation of the
[Search Configuration interface](search-configuration.interface.md) (the `queryBody` parameter of the `Search component` is now deprecated). The ADF source provides a standard implementation of this
interface, `SearchConfigurationService` that you can use as a base to adapt to your needs. See the
[Search Configuration interface](search-configuration.interface.md) page for full details of how to
customize your search.
