Hi,
I've spent some time to implement some long standing ideas I had for
improving the search module, without going as far as the AdvancedSearch
which implies pluggable search engine backend and such fancy things (the
''advanced'' search).
Here I'm talking about improving the ''basic'' search we had since ages
(the SELECT ... LIKE in the text columns of our database).
Now I'd be interested in getting some feedback.
Highlights:
- default ordering is now by relevance (''number of hits'' of the
search terms)
- it's still possible to have an ordering by date, viewed in
''Timeline'' style
- transfer the matching tickets to the custom query view, for further
analysis
- search by numerical id (#1268)
For more details, see http://trac.edgewall.org/wiki/SearchRefactoring
and of course the code: http://trac.edgewall.org/log/sandbox/search-api-tmp
Open points:
- the SearchResult is quite close to the TimelineEvent.
Would a common ancestor (e.g. ResourceInfo) be worthwhile?
- how to integrate search on custom fields?
- are the changes OK with existing ISearchSource in the wild?
(the old 0.10 interface is still supported of course, but are there
known additional requirements which are yet to be addressed?)
