-# run the migrations (makes most blob fields into text)
+Used for the search, `libdb` should already be installed on your system.
 
-knex migrate:latest
+## Building the search index
 
-# node index
+This script should be run regularly to keep the search index fresh:
+
+```
+npm run build:search
+```
+
+## Running
+
+You may have to include the .so files for bdb: `export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/var/www/bucky.asdf.us/bucky3/node_modules/berkeleydb/lib`
+
+```
+npm start
+```
