Rails searchkick displaying results

So i have searchkick working ( i can see the params displayed with byebug)

However, I'm wanting it to show a results page, ( i do need to create the search results page which im currently doing)

I havent a clue on how to link serch kick up so it spits out the results of the search (pagenated) rather than not showing anything

Heres what i have so far, I have the search engine on the homepage.

/pages/home.html.erb

<%= form_tag search_events_path, class: "form-inline", remote: true, method: :get do %>
  <div class="input-group input-group-lg">
    <%= text_field_tag :search, params[:search], class: "form-control", autocomplete: "off" %>
    <div class="input-group-btn">
      <%= submit_tag "Search", class: "btn btn-primary" %>
    </div>
  </div>
<% end %>

This is in my routes

  get 'search_events' => 'newevents#search', as: 'search_events'

my controller is this

  def search
    events = Newevent.search params[:search]
    render :json => events.to_json
  end

And my model just has searchkick inside

I'm wanting to have the search results show on a page inside the event folder called results.html.erb. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks,

Please be gentle, I've not been working with rails long. (enough to have read a couple of books thats how i have gotten this far haha!)

So you want newevents#search to render results.html.erb inside the app/views/events folder. Here you are:

def search
  @events = Newevent.search params[:search]
  render 'events/results'
end
