Constructor Details

#initialize(scope) ⇒ SearchBuilder #initialize(processor_chain, scope) ⇒ SearchBuilder

Returns a new instance of SearchBuilder.

Overloads:

  • #initialize(scope) ⇒ SearchBuilder

    Parameters:

    • scope (Object)

      scope the scope where the filter methods reside in.

  • #initialize(processor_chain, scope) ⇒ SearchBuilder

    Parameters:

    • processor_chain (List<Symbol>, TrueClass)

      options a list of filter methods to run or true, to use the default methods

    • scope (Object)

      the scope where the filter methods reside in.

                .with(search_state)

                .reverse_merge(@reverse_merged_params)

  builder.start = @start if @start
  builder.rows  = @rows if @rows
  builder.page  = @page if @page
  builder.facet = @facet if @facet
  builder
end

#except(*except_processor_chain) ⇒ Object

Converse to append, remove processor chain directives, returning a new builder that’s a copy of receiver with specified change.

Methods in argument that aren’t currently in processor chain are ignored as no-ops, rather than raising.

#processed_parametersObject

The CatalogController #index action uses this. Solr parameters can come from a number of places. From lowest precedence to highest:

1. General defaults in blacklight config (are trumped by)
2. defaults for the particular search field identified by  params[:search_field] (are trumped by)
3. certain parameters directly on input HTTP query params
   * not just any parameter is grabbed willy nilly, only certain ones are allowed by HTTP input)
   * for legacy reasons, qt in http query does not over-ride qt in search field definition default.
4.  extra parameters passed in as argument.

spellcheck.q will be supplied with the [:q] value unless specifically specified otherwise.

Incoming parameter :f is mapped to :fq solr parameter.

Returns:

  • a params hash for searching solr.

Update the :q (query) parameter

Examples:

search_builder.where(id: [1,2,3]) # produces: q:"{!lucene}id:(1 OR 2 OR 3)"
