d3-f-search✎ edit

Intro✎ edit

Finding topics by words and tags.

Search finds topics by words and tags, in one project or across every project a person belongs to, including inherited Help and skills. Settings and the pipeline have their own search. Tags are d3-f-tags. Spec: SpecUi › ui-menus (^srch-n).

Essentials✎ edit

  • R-search-1 Prefer one search call to listing and reading topics one by one.
  • R-search-2 Results follow each project's view rules: you only see what you may read; Report topics are never searched.

Concepts✎ edit

A ranked query over topics: name matches first, then mentions, most matches first; then inherited content. Also called: find, look up. Fields (hit): topic, project, its URL; pending (projects that timed out, scope=mine).

search_query✎ edit

  • Summary: one call by words (and #tags) in this project.
  • When: finding anything in the project.

  • Rules: R-search-1, R-search-2. After the project's own results comes one group per base (nearest first) with the Help, skills and templates it inherits, each marked with its project.
  • Errors: E_ARG → empty query: send q.
