* When viewing a tag, the search widget will now show a checkbox to scope the search by tag, which will limit search results to that tag on desktop and mobile
Zeitwerk simplifies working with dependencies in dev and makes it easier reloading class chains.
We no longer need to use Rails "require_dependency" anywhere and instead can just use standard
Ruby patterns to require files.
This is a far reaching change and we expect some followups here.
* FEATURE: Add search operator to see all direct messages from a user
* Only show message if related messages >= 5
* Make "all messages" the hyperlink
* Review
The behaviour of #TERM in search has been amended
1. We try category or subcategory slugs
2. We try tags
3. We try tag-groups
The term `hello #my-group` will search for all posts tagged with any of
the tags in the tag group `My Group`
Future work may be introducing a slug cache here or caching it in the table
but the assumption is that the number of tag groups will not be huge
This change both speeds up specs (less strings to allocate) and helps catch
cases where methods in Discourse are mutating inputs.
Overall we will be migrating everything to use #frozen_string_literal: true
it will take a while, but this is the first and safest move in this direction
The default ranking options ranks by the number of matches which is
highly problematic when posts are stuffed with a keyword. The ranking
will now be divided by the document length which is a much fairer way to
rank.
Previously with had `in:title` and `in:first` search shortcuts for
searching in first post or title only. They are a bit of handful to type.
This add 2 shortcuts (t and f) for searching titles of first posts.
This commit also cleans up all advanced filters, they were not properly
regex terminated allowing for weird clauses like `in:firstinator` acting
the same as `in:first`
4481836 introduced accent stipping in search_indexer,
but we need to strip it from the query itself as well
TODO in search with diacritics:
- Still need to fix excerpts on search page
- need to support accent stripping in in_topic search
- need to make sure that in:title works correctly
- need to fix "word boldening" in titles
- By default, behaviour is not changed: tags are made lowercase upon creation and edit.
- If force_lowercase_tags is disabled, then mixed case tags are allowed.
- Tags must remain case-insensitively unique. This is enforced by ActiveRecord and Postgres.
- A migration is added to provide a `UNIQUE` index on `lower(name)`. Migration includes a safety to correct any current tags that do not meet the criteria.
- A `where_name` scope is added to `models/tag.rb`, to allow easy case-insensitive lookups. This is used instead of `Tag.where(name: "blah")`.
- URLs remain lowercase. Mixed case URLs are functional, but have the lowercase equivalent as the canonical.
Introduce new patterns for direct sql that are safe and fast.
MiniSql is not prone to memory bloat that can happen with direct PG usage.
It also has an extremely fast materializer and very a convenient API
- DB.exec(sql, *params) => runs sql returns row count
- DB.query(sql, *params) => runs sql returns usable objects (not a hash)
- DB.query_hash(sql, *params) => runs sql returns an array of hashes
- DB.query_single(sql, *params) => runs sql and returns a flat one dimensional array
- DB.build(sql) => returns a sql builder

This updates tests to use latest rails 5 practice
and updates ALL dependencies that could be updated
Performance testing shows that performance has not regressed
if anything it is marginally faster now.
Also
- Significantly improved search ranking, title is treated most strongly
- Adds tag names to the index
- Run search re-indexer more aggressively
- Re-index topic and all posts on category change
On very large forums searching posts can be slow, so this commit
introduces the ability to try and search only the most recent posts
first, and then going for a larger breadth search if there aren't
enough results.
Enable `search_prefer_recent_posts` and you can customize how many
recent posts to filter with `search_recent_posts_size`
Since rspec-rails 3, the default installation creates two helper files:
* `spec_helper.rb`
* `rails_helper.rb`
`spec_helper.rb` is intended as a way of running specs that do not
require Rails, whereas `rails_helper.rb` loads Rails (as Discourse's
current `spec_helper.rb` does).
For more information:
https://www.relishapp.com/rspec/rspec-rails/docs/upgrade#default-helper-files
In this commit, I've simply replaced all instances of `spec_helper` with
`rails_helper`, and renamed the original `spec_helper.rb`.
This brings the Discourse project closer to the standard usage of RSpec
in a Rails app.
At present, every spec relies on loading Rails, but there are likely
many that don't need to. In a future pull request, I hope to introduce a
separate, minimal `spec_helper.rb` which can be used in tests which
don't rely on Rails.
