How to show search results with their url's in Umbraco 7

Question

I have implemented search in Umbraco 7 using examine and user control. Search is working fine. Now I need to show the URL of the search results displayed on the lists. Is there any index property like "BodyText" which can show the URL or do I have to do some stuff in user control?

User Control code:

public static class SiteSearchResultExtensions
{
    public static string FullURL(this Examine.SearchResult sr)
    {
        return umbraco.library.NiceUrl(sr.Id);
    }
}



public partial class SiteSearchResults : System.Web.UI.UserControl
{
    #region Properties

    private int _pageSize = 5;
    public string PageSize
    {
        get { return _pageSize.ToString(); }
        set
        {
            int pageSize;
            if (int.TryParse(value, out pageSize))
            {
                _pageSize = pageSize;
            }
            else
            {
                _pageSize = 10;
            }
        }
    }

    private string SearchTerm
    {
        get
        {
            object o = this.ViewState["SearchTerm"];
            if (o == null)
                return "";
            else
                return o.ToString();
        }

        set
        {
            this.ViewState["SearchTerm"] = value;
        }
    }

    protected IEnumerable<Examine.SearchResult> SearchResults
    {
        get;
        private set;
    }

I have done my Examine settings like this:

ExamineIndex.Config

  <IndexSet SetName="ExternalndexSet" IndexPath="~/App_Data/TEMP/ExamineIndexes/ExternalIndex/">
      <IndexAttributeFields>
          <add Name="id"/>

      </IndexAttributeFields>
      <IndexUserFields>
          <add Name="bodyText"/>
          <add Name="umbracoNaviHide"/>
     </IndexUserFields>
     <IncludeNodeTypes/>
     <ExcludeNodeTypes/>
  </IndexSet>

Answer 1

It was quite simple and i done some editing in the Usercontrol(SiteSearchresult.ascx) like this

    <li>
                <a href="<%# ((Examine.SearchResult)Container.DataItem).FullURL() %>">
                    <%# ((Examine.SearchResult)Container.DataItem).Fields["nodeName"] %>

                <br >
           addingvalue.webdevstaging.co.uk<%# ((Examine.SearchResult)Container.DataItem).FullURL() %>

                </a>

                <p><%# ((Examine.SearchResult)Container.DataItem).Fields.ContainsKey("bodyText") == true ? ((Examine.SearchResult)Container.DataItem).Fields["bodyText"] : ""%></p>
            </li>
