1
+ = Awesome Search
2
+
3
+ * A helpful library to make searching more organized in the controller and views.
4
+ * Using this library will force you to write a class for each kind of search you want to use.
5
+ * It has features that allow easy configuration of searches tailored to work with rsolr.
6
+
7
+ == Usage
8
+
9
+ See tests.
10
+
11
+ AwesomeSearch.results_for_type_and_locale(":local :text this is a test", ":upc", ":ebay")
12
+
13
+ == Configuration
14
+
15
+ These are the settings used by the test suite. Configure separately for each search class you create,
16
+ or all at once for AwesomeSearch.
17
+
18
+ AwesomeSearch.configure_search_locales do |config|
19
+ config[:search_locales_to_classes] =
20
+ { ":local" => "SearchLocal",
21
+ ":amazon" => "SearchAmazon",
22
+ ":google" => "SearchGoogle",
23
+ ":ebay" => "SearchEbay" },
24
+ config[:search_locales_to_locale_modifiers] =
25
+ {
26
+ ":local" =>
27
+ [ ":local" ],
28
+ ":amazon" =>
29
+ [ ":amazon",
30
+ ":amzn",
31
+ ":amz",
32
+ ":am"],
33
+ ":google" =>
34
+ [ ":google",
35
+ ":goog",
36
+ ":goo",
37
+ ":go"],
38
+ ":ebay" =>
39
+ [ ":ebay",
40
+ ":eby",
41
+ ":eb"]
42
+ },
43
+ config[:locale_modifiers_to_search_locales] =
44
+ {
45
+ ":local" => ":local",
46
+ ":amazon" => ":amazon",
47
+ ":amz" => ":amazon",
48
+ ":amzn" => ":amazon",
49
+ ":am" => ":amazon",
50
+ ":google" => ":google",
51
+ ":goog" => ":google",
52
+ ":goo" => ":google",
53
+ ":go" => ":google",
54
+ ":ebay" => ":ebay",
55
+ ":eby" => ":ebay",
56
+ ":eb" => ":ebay"
57
+ }
58
+ end
59
+
60
+ AwesomeSearch.configure_search_types do |config|
61
+ config[:search_types_to_type_modifiers] =
62
+ {
63
+ ":isbn" => ":isbn",
64
+ ":sku" => ":sku",
65
+ ":upc" => ":upc",
66
+ ":asin" => ":asin",
67
+ ":id" => ":dbid",
68
+ ":text" => ":text"
69
+ },
70
+ # When using observer, how long should we wait before sending out search queries?
71
+ config[:search_type_inceptions] =
72
+ {
73
+ ":isbn" => 10,
74
+ ":sku" => 8,
75
+ ":upc" => 10,
76
+ ":asin" => 10,
77
+ ":id" => 1,
78
+ ":text" => 4
79
+ },
80
+ config[:search_type_regexes] =
81
+ {
82
+ ":isbn" => /\d{10}$|^\d{13}/, #match 10 or 13 digits for isbn
83
+ ":sku" => /[0-9a-zA-Z\-]+/, #match any alphanumeric
84
+ ":upc" => /\d{10}$|^\d{12}/,
85
+ ":asin" => /\w{10}/,
86
+ ":id" => /\d+/,
87
+ ":text" => /\w{4}/
88
+ }
89
+ end
90
+
91
+ Create subclasses like this:
92
+
93
+ #1. inherit from SuperSearch (which inherits from AwesomeSearch)
94
+ class SearchAmazon < SuperSearch
95
+ #2. Define a method called get_results
96
+ def get_results
97
+ #3. Always return nil unless super, as super's get_results will ensure the search is valid
98
+ return nil unless super
99
+ #4. Here is where you would do actual searching. Write other methods and call them if need be or call methods in other classes, etc.
100
+ # You need to set the attribute 'found' to contain the search result(s).
101
+ # found is set to [] in the super, so you can iterate and do << with it,
102
+ # or set it to whatever you need it to be
103
+ self.found = Model.find(stuff) if stuff
104
+ nil
105
+ end
106
+ end
107
+
108
+
109
+ == Note on Patches/Pull Requests
110
+
111
+ * Fork the project.
112
+ * Make your feature addition or bug fix.
113
+ * Add tests for it. This is important so I don't break it in a
114
+ future version unintentionally.
115
+ * Commit, do not mess with rakefile, version, or history.
116
+ (if you want to have your own version, that is fine but bump version in a commit by itself I can ignore when I pull)
117
+ * Send me a pull request. Bonus points for topic branches.
