Is there a full text search featured planned?

eunomie commented 11 years ago

Hi,

A full text search is not planned at the moment but it could be interesting.

What do you mean by full text search ? Search inside a book or search through all the books?

edas commented 11 years ago

We thought about a full text search inside each book but we left that out of the scope of the first version. It may be implemented later in 2013.

The main problem we'll face are the size of the index if we want the full search available offline and the performance of the search itself.

If you want to implement this, we could have a chat so I can share our first research with you.

Just wanted to know what is your roadmap, I don't think I'll implement this at this moment, but if I do I will gladly have a chat with you first.

@CrEv yep I mean search inside a book

j15e commented 11 years ago

@edas Indeed the index size & performance on small device might be an issue, but I am sure we can find ways to deal with that.
