[API] [Workbench] Site-wide regex searching
Added by Bryan Cosca over 9 years ago.
Updated about 5 years ago.
Description
Why stop at collections when we can search the entire curoverse using regex?
- Subject changed from Site-wide regex searching to [API] [Workbench] Site-wide regex searching
- Category set to Workbench
- Target version set to Arvados Future Sprints
Currently the search box is a "LIKE" query, so foo%baz will find foobarbaz site-wide.
It seems like it would be easy to add a ~ operator to the filters API, and use that for workbench search. Performance could be worse than LIKE for equivalent queries. Is there any other reason not to?
Either way it's probably a good idea to check up on our table indexing situation.
- Story points changed from 0.5 to 1.0
- Status changed from New to Resolved
Full text search meets the bulk of this need.
- Target version deleted (
Arvados Future Sprints)
