[Feature] Filter documents by title and content #636

Closed jonaswinkler closed 3 years ago

jonaswinkler commented 3 years ago

In version 1.2.0 I'm able to do a fulltext (content) search in the top (green bar). Output is a list of all documents found, with probability, but features from documents section filtering are missing (select, add tag, bulk download...)

What I would like to have is the options of the filtering under documents.

-select found documents -add tag, correspondant,.. to selection -or download all selected files as .zip -change views

I don't know what is best?

a) add the features from the document filter to the search in the top b) add context search to the document section

Plus: It would be nice to have a option for the document retagger to specify which tag to work on (not use all tags).

mamage.py document_retagger -T 'tagstring'

Regards

Saw this in dev, its great. LMK what you think about this visual tweak, small checkboxes instead of dropdown:

Would need some changes to the logic too. Just a thought!

Good idea, but:

This dropdown will eventually also have an option to use the provided text filter for full text searching (I'm working on integrating that). Read: Sorted and highlighted query results, but with the added ability to filter and bulk-edit. This might replace "title & content", so I'd like to stay this the way it is right now.

Gotcha yea sounds like a big change, we can circle back after that
