Wiki.getSearch problems

[carles.coll]

Only for: Mindtouch 10

Before when you searched for [ tag:"whatever with spaces tag" ] it worked perfectly, now it search like:

tag:whatever with spaces tag

That's not the correct working way, you have an example here:

http://developer.mindtouch.com/User:...earch_for_Tags

The code:

wiki.getsearch{query: 'tag:"Noticia Interna"', max: 5, sortby: '-date'};

The previous page it only has to return 1 page, and it returns a lot of them.

I've filled a bug for it: http://bugs.developer.mindtouch.com/view.php?id=8445

Thanks in advance,
Carles.

For the moment if you substitute the "Noticia Interna" for ("Noticia Interna"):

wiki.getsearch{query: 'tag:"Noticia Interna"', max: 5, sortby: '-date'};

Change to:

wiki.getsearch{query: 'tag"Noticia Interna")', max: 5, sortby: '-date'};

But the first sentence worked on the previous releases

For the new search features we rewrote how lucene queries are parsed, because we had a lot of scenarios that didn't work properly. Looks like the quote string regression snuck in as part of that. I've just committed a fix to trunk and it will be in the next point release

More problems with wiki.getsearch,

When I add some constratint like -> path:whatever/subwhatever it just doesn't take care of it:

 wiki.getsearch("search_criteria",10,'-date','path:whatever/subwhatever');

It just search all over the wiki not only in the given path.

Well, it's something with 'path:whatever/subwhatever' becouse if I put the path condition on search_criteria it also just doesn't take care of it.

Finally I got it working with a search_criteria like:

"+(search_criteria) +(path:whatever/subwhatever)"

I just had the same problem with wiki.getsearch and your solution worked for me.

This query: "type:wiki AND path:user:neilw/text/*" returned zero results. Specifying "type:wiki" in the "constraint" argument instead, had no effect. Specifying the query as "+type:wiki +path:user:neil/test/*" worked as desired.

Your query does generate an unintended query for which I've filed a bug:

http://bugs.developer.mindtouch.com/view.php?id=8501

In the meantime, does this do what you want?

 wiki.getsearch("search_criteria",10,'-date','+path:whatever/subwhatever');

We've changed how lucene queries are built because a lot of scenarios just didn't work as intended. Constraints a bit tricky because combining the constraints we inject with ad-hoc constraints can lead to constraints that are unintentional ORs that allow too much or unintentional ANDs that complete decimate the possible set.

The best way to figure out whether you are getting the query you want is to put the query and criteria through the search @api call and see what lucene query it actually results in.

mgah.

what is the syntax for wiki.getsearch? man this is the part about dekiscript that is infuriating!

im trying to list all pages from a folder that has a certain tag, the actual search word doesnt matter

let pages = wiki.getsearch("",10,'-date','+tag:review +path:FOLDER/');
doesnt seem to work

let pages = wiki.getsearch{query: 'tag:mytag AND path:FOLDER/', max: 1, sortby: '-date'}
doesnt seem to work

what does work?
