OLIP - Opensearch implementation

[mitra42]

Basic idea is cross app searching that OLIP will implement

• See https://docs.google.com/document/d/1bWLrUtpUtAuHTd_7phSZnH4b08Dn1bHAaB_K2Ge8_hI/edit#heading=h.14mpx6a8znb7

Its nasty ... XML, and incomplete (no example of what wanted back)

• [ ] Think about online / offline extension
  • [ ] Specifying whether to search offline or online or both
  • [ ] Informing in results whether data is downloaded
  • See https://gitlab.com/bibliosansfrontieres/olip/olip-api/issues/19
• [ ] Add to descriptor - see https://gitlab.com/bibliosansfrontieres/olip/olip-deploy/issues/2
• [x] Build and return opensearch descriptor in response to query /opensearch
• [x] Build and return (REMOTE) opensearch results in response to URL in descriptor
• [ ] Build local text based searcher at least of metadata and return results.
  • [ ] Asked for any kind of tool to build index and format of index used https://gitlab.com/bibliosansfrontieres/olip/olip-api/issues/22
• [ ] Think about IIAB implementation

• [x] add to descriptor

  "search": { "container": "app", "opensearch_uri": "/opensearch" }

Debugging

[mitra42]

Struggling with this ...

• Remote search is stuck behind an MR needed -
  • [x] ready to test solution and update see olip-deploy#2
  • [x] Now blocked on crash logging in https://gitlab.com/bibliosansfrontieres/olip/olip-dashboard/issues/29
• Local search is a big task
  • https://gitlab.com/bibliosansfrontieres/olip/hugo-mediacenter/blob/master/docker/rebuild_mediacenter.py
  • and that is stuck behind a bug ... https://gitlab.com/bibliosansfrontieres/olip/olip-deploy/issues/2
  • [x] npw fixed, can look at rebuild_mediacenter's files now.
  • doesnt appear to be any tools in OLIP to build indexes, or anything really using them.

Testing local search ...
