-------------------------------------------
Simple REST endpoint for testing with:
{code:title=views.py}
def test_autocomplete_search(request):
"""Find matching words for given search string."""
search = request.GET['search']
import re
pattern = re.compile(search, re.IGNORECASE)
matches = []
with open("/usr/share/dict/words", 'r') as f:
matches = [line.strip() for line in f if pattern.search(line)]
return JsonResponse({
"search": search,
"results": [{"text": m, "value": m} for m in matches[:20]]
})
{code}
{code:title=urls.py}

> Key: AIRAVATA-3324
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/AIRAVATA-3324
> Project: Airavata
> Issue Type: New Feature
> Components: Django Portal
> Reporter: Marcus Christie
> Assignee: Marcus Christie
> Priority: Major
>
> Create an autocomplete input editor that allows user to type and get
> autocompleted matching results in a dropdown. Selecting a dropdown item
> populates the input editor with that value.
> The frontend component will make HTTP requests to a configured URL to fetch
> matching results for the currently entered search string. It's up to the
> backed URL to determine from where to get the matching results, for example,
> it could retrieve them from a database or file or a third party service.
> h3. Configuring autocomplete input editor
> {code}
> {
> "editor": {
> "ui-component-id": "autocomplete-input-editor",
> "config": {
> "url": "/custom/search/"
> }
> }
> }
> {code}
> h3. Backend URL contract
> - URL is called with query parameter {{search}} with value of whatever the
> user has currently typed
> - URL should return a JSON response with a {{search}} key and the value of
> that key used for the search and an {{results}} key with a list matching
> results, limited to the top 10. Each result should have a {{text}} key with
> the text displayed to the user and a {{value}} key which is the value applied
> to the experiment input if selected. For example:
> {code}
> {
> "search": "mammal",
> "results": [
> {
> "text": "Horse",
> "value": "horse"
> },
> {
> "text": "Mouse",
> "value": "mouse"
> }
> ]
> }
> {code}
> h5. TODO
> - [ ] Load search results as user types
