Forgejo supports code search through an indexer and `git-grep` as a fallback when [`REPO_INDEXER_ENABLED`](../../admin/config-cheat-sheet#indexer-indexer) is disabled.
# Basic (git-grep)
If `REPO_INDEXER_ENABLED` is set to `false`, the code search function will be limited to a single repository and will use [`git-grep`](https://git-scm.com/docs/git-grep).
Currently, only fixed strings are supported and any case differences are ignored. The search results will include the matched line, along with a context of three lines before and after the match. The search query will be executed on the default branch of the repository.
# Indexer
For advanced search queries and searching across an entire organisation or instance, `REPO_INDEXER_ENABLED: true` enables code search via bleve/elasticsearch.
