Is there any tutorial or documentation on how to integrate DNN core serch in a custom module in the same way how it is implemented in the HTML module?

Suggest that you look at Christoc's templates. If you build a test module with the templates, you'll see a stubbed out example.

Essentially you need to implement the iSearchable (I think) interface.


I know that there is some documentation around, but I'm not sure where.

HTML module is open source - IMO easiest would be checking out implementation in its ModuleController.

Thanks Sebastian, as you recommend I've find the solution on Github HTML module at this link: https://github.com/dnnsof...tmlTextController.cs

The only one function to implement for the ModuleSearchBase interface is GetModifiedSearchDocuments
