public class SearchFormHandler
extends BaseSearchFormHandler

This form handler can be used to search repositories with any combination of several search types: Keyword, Text, Hierarchical, Advanced. Each of these types are enabled with a boolean parameter. The handler examines each boolean and if true, appends that search's subquery to the full query string.

General Properties

Set one or more of the following properties to "true" to enable a search type:

doKeywordSearch

look in multiple text properties for one or more keywords

doTextSearch

perform a full-text search for a specified search string in one or more text properties

doHierarchicalSearch

find all decendents of a specified repository item

doAdvancedSearch

similar to a Keyword search, except that we test properties for an exact match rather than matching substrings within the property

Keyword Search Properties

Keyword searching takes a set of property names and a search string(s). Each property will be searched for these strings. You may also search *ALL* string properties (excluding enumerated and non-queriable properties) of an item by simply leaving the property keywordSearchPropertyNames empty.

keywordSearchPropertyNames

array of property names to search in the format "item-type-name.property-name". Leave empty to search all string properties.

keywords

array of keyword strings to search for. If not set, will use keywordInput property

keywordInput

alternative way to search keywords. Unlike keywords, this property allows logical operators (AND, OR, NOT, &, |, !) and supports parenthesis '(' and ')' to group logic. Quote keyword values with single or double quotes if they include spaces. Quote types may not be mixed. Logical operators are optional; 'OR' will be used by default

toUpperCaseKeywords

set this to "true" to force keywords to be converted to upper-case before the query is run

toLowerCaseKeywords

set this to "true" to force keywords to be converted to lower-case before the query is run

Text Search Properties

Text searching takes a list of text property names and an input search string to do text pattern matching. Values entered will be used to build the sub-query for text searching.

textSearchPropertyNames

list of property names to search in the format "item-type-name.property-name". If not specified, the default list of text properties configured in the repository will be used.

searchStringFormat

the format to use i.e. "ORACLE_CONTEXT", "SYBASE_SDS"

textInput

The string to search for. If a repository is configured to simulate full-text queries (simulateTextSearchQueries=true), the SQL LIKE operator will be used to determine whether the target value is a substring of any of the text properties being searched.

allowWildcards

If true, the wildcard character '*' can be used anywhere in the input string to represent any number of characters. True by default.

minScore

minimum required score that the results must meet or exceed in order to be returned by the full-text search engine. See vendor docs for more information on the meaning and use of the score value. [NOTE: Current repository implementations don't yet support this feature of full-text searches.]

Hierarchical Search Properties

Hierarchical searches look in a subset of items, starting from a given item, including also that items's child items, and also those children's children, i.e. all descendants of the original item. The given item is indicated by the repository ID in the ancestorId property.

ancestorPropertyName

the name of the property in which to search for ancestor repository items

ancestorId

the property that represents the repositoryId of the ancestor item to search in

Advanced Search Properties

Advanced searching takes a list of properties and values or ranges of values for those properties and looks for an exact match. Additionally, the Advanced Search can be used to provide all possible search values for properties specified in AdvancedSearchPropertyNames. For example, enumerated types will be defined in the repository with a set number of values. Advanced searching can retrieve these values to be displayed in a select box.

advancedSearchPropertyNames

list of property names to search. Format: type.property

advancedSearchPropertyValues

propery names mapped to search values. Fortat: type.property=value

advancedSearchPropertyRanges

For each property searched, you can specify a value "range" rather than a single value. Either a maximum or minimum value or both may be specified. Ranges are set by item type, then property name, and finally by "max" or "min". For example, "mySearchHandler.advancedSearchPropertyRanges.product.creationDate.max"

propertyValuesByType

dictionary containing one key/value pair for each property named in advancedSearchPropertyNames whose type is either enumerated, RepositoryItem or a collection of RepositoryItems. The key is the name of the property and the value is a Collection of the possible values. If the property type a collection of RepositoryItems, the value will be a collection of RepositoryItem. Alternatively, if the property type is RepositoryItem a property of each item is returned as described below.

displayName

when a property of an item being searched is another RepositoryItem, by default we search the child item's property named "displayName" if it exists. In the same way, values returned by the property propertyValuesByType will be values of the property "displayName" when the property is a RepositoryItem. Use this property to override the default name of "displayName"

Form Actions

In addition to the standard "cancel" action of all form handlers:

search

execute the search and store the results. The Keyword and Text queries are OR'ed together. The Advanced and Hierarchical queries are AND'ed together, and these combined queries are then OR'ed. That is: ( (Keyword OR Text) AND (Advanced AND Hierarchical).

clearQuery

this action is used in combination with the property allowRefine. It will force the previous query to be cleared so that the user may begin refining their query anew.

Parameters:

pRepository - the Repository to search in

pItemType - the type of item to search for. Typically corresponds to an item descriptor name

pQueryBuilder - the builder that should be used to construct the query

Throws:

RepositoryException - if an error occured while forming the query

generateTextSearchQuery

protected Query generateTextSearchQuery(java.lang.String pItemType,
                                        QueryBuilder pQueryBuilder,
                                        java.lang.String pInput)
                                 throws RepositoryException

Return a query which represents a text search query. This method builds a sub-query for each attribute named in the textSearchPropertyNames property. Each sub-query is OR'd together to form the total query. The search string format is configured with the searchStringFormat property.

Parameters:

pItemType - the type of item to search for.

pQueryBuilder - the builder that should be used to construct the query

pInput - the search string to use for the full text search

Throws:

RepositoryException - if an error occured while forming the query

generateAdvancedSearchQuery

protected Query generateAdvancedSearchQuery(Repository pRepository,
                                            java.lang.String pItemType,
                                            QueryBuilder pQueryBuilder)
                                     throws RepositoryException,
                                            DropletFormException

Return a query which represents an advanced search based on selected property values. This method builds a sub-query for each property found in mAdvancedSearchPropertyNames. If the property type is another repository item, we need to search below this level for the property value. To do this, we append .displayName to the property before searching. All advanced property sub-queries are AND'd together to form the final complete query string.

Parameters:

pRepository - the repository to search

pItemType - the type of item to search for.

pQueryBuilder - the builder that should be used to construct the query

Throws:

RepositoryException - if an error occured while forming the query

DropletFormException

generateHierarchicalSearchQuery

protected Query generateHierarchicalSearchQuery(java.lang.String pItemType,
                                                QueryBuilder pQueryBuilder)
                                         throws RepositoryException

Build a query which represents a hierarchical search, that is, a constraint to look only in a designated item, its child items, and so on, in effect, to all descendants of the designated item. The designated item is indicated by repository ID in the ancestorId property. If that repository ID is null or null string, then this method generates a null query.

Note: this query assumes that the item type being searched for has a property (as indicated by the value of theancestorPropertyName property) whose value is a collection of all its ancestor groups. If the designated item is contained in this collection, then this query returns true.

Parameters:

pItemType - the type of item to search for. Typically corresponds to an item descriptor name

pQueryBuilder - the builder that should be used to construct the query

Throws:

RepositoryException - if an error occured while forming the query

generateSearchValues

protected java.util.Collection generateSearchValues(java.lang.String pItemType,
                                                    java.lang.String pPropertyName)

Used by the advanced searching feature. Returns a list of available search options for pPropertyName. Will search through all itemTypes and collect all values for properties. For example, an enumerated property will be defined in the repository item descriptor with a set of values. This method will get possible values from the property descriptor. Other properties may need a repository query to obtain those options. This collection of searchValues can then be displayed in a select box to further refine advanced searching.

Parameters:

pItemType - item of the property to search for possible values

pPropertyName - name of the property to get possible values for

Returns:

options or null if no values could be found

splitPropertyNames

protected void splitPropertyNames(java.lang.String[] pTypes,
                                  java.lang.String[] pSource,
                                  java.util.HashMap pDest,
                                  java.lang.String pSearchType)

Split property names into type and name from type.name

transformKeywords

protected java.lang.String[] transformKeywords(java.lang.String[] pKeywords)

With the supplied keywords perform any modifications that are required to allow it to be used within a keyword query. This implementation checks the toLowerCaseKeywords and toUpperCaseKeywords properties to determine if String.toLowerCase or String.toUpperCase should be invoked.

Parameters:

pKeywords - the words to transform for querying

prepare

protected void prepare(DynamoHttpServletRequest pRequest,
                       DynamoHttpServletResponse pResponse)

Prepare search properties.
