[Geoserver-devel] Proposal for adding exact term search to search text-boxes
Hello, GeoServer Community. I am writing to propose a modification to the GeoServer web interface that I believe would enhance the user experience and improve usability. The goal is to extend the search functionality within GeoServer pages by introducing a specific feature that could help to better search for elements with the textual search box. Background: Currently, the search functionality lacks the capability to find specific words. Its full-text fashion simply returns any word that contains the search term. For example, if a user searches for layers named "gis", he may get results like gis_store and registered because the search term appears within both words. Proposal Overview: My proposal consists in expanding the syntax that the search box recognizes, adding the possibility to have an exact term search just quoting the word. Follows a visual example in the screenshots below. The full-text search has returned two layers as the results of the query arch. As you can see, in the returned layers not only the actual arch layer is present, but also the archive one, since the latter contains the searched word in its name. Here is an example showing the new functionality, where the search has been made for an exact term, quoting the word: "arch". As a result, only the arch layer is displayed. Impact and Benefits: These changes would not affect the default search functionality, that would be still made on all the text attributes of the searched element (layer, workspace, style, etc.). Additionally, users can combine full-text search with exact term search to create more complex queries, such as: “history” “gis” arch (all elements containing in their text fields the word history or all elements containing in their text fields the word gis or all elements containing in their text fields a word that contains arch). Implementation Plan: The changes needed to implement this functionality should be limited to the `GeoServerDataProvider` classes. Additionally, a tooltip explaining the new syntax next to the search box would be beneficial for users. I am eager to hear your thoughts and feedback on this proposal. Please feel free to share any concerns, suggestions, or alternative approaches that you believe should be considered.

Hi, https://github.com/geoserver/geoserver/pull/7577 turns out to be much more work than anticipated, unfortunately I've no run out of time due to upcoming holidays, so this PR will stall from my side for a couple of weeks. Anyone willing to spend some time on it is quite welcome 藍 If not I will continue when I get back.
