ydn-db fulltext species search demo doesn't work when offline: this.db.search is not a function

Question

I opened http://dev.yathit.com/demo/ydn-db-text/animals/animals.html demo online, it worked. But when I try to use this demo in an offline mode, something goes wrong.

These error messages appear right after I type something into input:

Chrome (with --allow-file-access-from-files flag enabled):

Uncaught TypeError: Object [object Object] has no method 'search'  -->  animals.js:111
  Animals.handleSearch

Firefox:

TypeError: this.db.search is not a function
  var rq = this.db.search('name', this.ele_input_.value);
  animals.js (line 111)

By the way, I have "2359 animals loaded, indexing... done." message, it means that database is loaded, but what's the problem with var rq = this.db.search('name', this.ele_input_.value)?

UPDATE
I checked https://github.com/yathit/ydn-db-fulltext/blob/master/examples/animals/animals.html source, and now I see the problem: two local js files (ydn-db.js and animals.js) are not enough, this app has a lot of dependencies:

<script src="../../../closure-library/closure/goog/base.js"></script>
<script src="../../../closure-library/closure/goog/deps.js"></script>
<script src="../../../ydn-base/src/deps.js"></script>
<script src="../../../ydn-db/src/deps.js"></script>

</script>
<script src="../../../ydn-db/config/crud.js"></script>

<script type="text/javascript" src="../../../ydn-db/src/ydn/db/crud/inject.js"></script>  

but those files are not included in the downloadable zip package.

It looks like you are using different ydn-db js file. Most of the ydn-db distribution files do not have full text search module.

The web page is client side html. It should work. IndexedDB must served by a valid origin, so spin up server for testing. --allow-file-access-from-files is irrelevant I believe.

Did you use the js file in the demo?
