Revamp text search within Ambra.

Description (Last modified by amit)

Text search in Ambra is complicated and painful legacy of the original Topaz design. It needs to be redone to allow for graceful roll back on error and to simplify the search code.

Secondly it would be great to be able to do search within TQL relationship query.

  • milestone deleted.

if we ever need to search annotations, one path will be to index annotations with lucene, requiring some interaction between mulgara and lucene.

unknown when/if this will happen.

Just to add to the discussion. With the checkin on the backend with regards to 'blobs', we can potentially mark a blob content for Lucene indexing and searching. One of the many way we are thinking full-text search can potentially be improved. Not for this release of course, but for future reference.

Lucene Annotations

I would point to compass instead - I think that provides more features for us. Also, it's not just the blob but also various fields that need to be indexed by lucene, so I think it will be more than just blob triggered.

We also need to merge simple search and advanced search internally into a single function and not two separate functions. From an end-user perspective there still might be two visible ways of searching, but internally it should map to one and the same.

We also need to make this 'journal' aware if necessary. At this stage Rich and I both agree that journal should be one more condition that the user can apply. I am making this the overall ticket related to text search and closing others as duplicate.

  • owner set to ronald.
  • milestone set to 0.9.1.

For next release just to remove complexity related to ingestion.

  • description changed.
  • summary changed from Advanced Search - Lucene / Mulgara to Revamp text search within Ambra..

  • type changed from task to defect.

09/20/08 22:51:37 changed by ronald

  • status changed from new to assigned.

Note: need to make sure we fix #1030 and make sure we got fields mentioned in #723 when we upgrade Ambra to the new search stuff. This may require pulling out more metadata during ingest than we currently do.

There are also a number of fields that are not being indexed during ingest but should be. See Search Use Cases - Additional Fields
