#1352: Use logic functions instead of as_dict when indexing entities

amercader — Wed, 21 Sep 2011 14:29:57 GMT

The current search implementation uses the output of the the as_dict method of the domain Package object to update the index

It also uses package_to_api1 in the SynchronousSearch? plugin:

This prevents extensions from being able to index custom properties (e.g. faceting by custom extras not included in the model).

The search should use the logic function to get the package properties:

get_action('package_show')(context,data_dict)

#2962: Search across multiple ckan instances

Could be done by:

using the solr distributed search
- difficult set up
merging result sets from apis
- make sure that results can be merged properly (score, facets, ...)
