Boost service discovery (tile) results based on boosted category. #1392

Closed richardxia closed 3 months ago

richardxia commented 3 months ago

In order to surface some specific results on the tile results page, we make use of an optional filter on a newly added Algolia index property.

On the backend, we've created a new column, boosted_category, which we can optionally set on each Service. This allows us perform an optional filter only on the tile results pages, and not the general search page, where services that match the optional filter are boosted in ranking.

For now, there can only be one boosted_category per service, but this is sufficient for the current use case, where only two services need to be boosted, and they each only apply to one category.

It looks like I'm failing CI because GitHub Actions removed support for the old version of docker-compose, and the new one is just a subcommand of the docker command: https://github.com/orgs/community/discussions/116610

Let me fix that in a separate PR, since I don't want to mix random infra changes with this PR.
