The search service's interface now just consists
of the two functions query() and isLoading().
query() returns a promise for an array or results,
which eliminates the need for timeout polling like
was previously done. The search providers
have also been changed to reutrn promises.
Moved the polling for most recent results
from the search controller to the search
aggregator.
Also changed ng-change back to ng-keyup
in the search template.
Made the search bar text input go to ngModel.input,
rather than getting the text manually from the DOM
element. Additionally, removed the search service
from the search controller's scope.
Selecting something in the search results now
also makes it selected in the filetree. It
remains selected even when the search results
are cleared. (The filetree does not
automatically expand to that position though.)
Updating the searchbar to be again more
similar to the search view. It now has
a 'load more' button, but it is not
clickable for some reason. In progress.
Previously had removed the elasticsearch provider
from bundle.json so could work on the generic
search web worker. Now have modified the
elasticsearch provider to match the new interface
with the aggregator, and it works.
At this point, search is 'working'
The search controller now updates the display
results list, then repeatedly asks the
aggregator to update until the timestamps
all are at least as new as the one that the
controller originally gave for the query.
Basically, the search now updates correctly
without having to press enter again.
(Temporariliy removed the elasticsearch provider
from bundle.json)
Added a timestamp parameter to the query so that
the aggregator can tell when the results were last
updated. Created a separate function for getting
the results list. GenericSearch now converts back
from models to domain objects after the web worker
does its work.
Connecting GenericSearch to the web worker is still
in progress. The aggregator currently gets the
results before the web worker is finished. In process
of fixing sync issue.
Changed how the generic search provider determines
search matches. It now splits the search input into
search terms by spliting at spaces, and then scores
the results by how many of the terms appear as
substrings in the result.
Added validType() as a callback parameter to the search
providers. It is defined in the search aggregator, and
is used to put any restrictions on object type in the
displayed search results.
Renamed EverythingSearchProvider to GenericSearchProvider.
The search aggregator now merges search
results from different providers better.
It removed duplicate results, and orders
the list of results from highest to
lowest score.
Renamed QueryService as SearchService and changed
the corresponding references to it. Added a
SearchAggregator file and related files. Not
yet begun with the implementation.
