This library is very flexible, but appears to be missing the option to handle filters/facets. If someone has partially entered a search term (and autocomplete results are showing), and then filters/facets are added or changed, the autocomplete results display inconsistently and erratically. That is because some entries are cached prior to the filter/facet, but new requests are filtered.
The jquery.swiftype.js library has a function
Swiftype.reloadResults()which should be called whenever a filter/facet is dynamically changed. In the same way, when filters/facets are changed when using this code,Swiftype.resetAutocompleteCache()should be called to reset the cache and provide consistent autocomplete results.
