To allow linking to recipes in the layer index from Toaster, we would like to be able to search for recipe_name+layer_name. For example: http://layers.openembedded.org/layerindex/branch/master/recipes/?q=3g-router-image+meta-embeddedgeeks Also, if the search returns only one result, to display the recipe details page, instead of the search results page with only one item.
bug 6592 is the one needing this enhancement
Got a somewhat clunky working implementation, will refine and submit soon...
Sent "search enhancements" patch to list, waiting for review
Moving this to 2.2M2. I need to check if patches are already on proper repo.
Elliot, According to the comment https://bugzilla.yoctoproject.org/show_bug.cgi?id=6618#c3 patches may be already on a repository so first task here is to see if those patches were either merged or not.
Marking as NEEDINFO so Leonardo can check whether the patches are on a repository, as per comment 5.
Anibal will review current feature status.
Anibal will check if feature/commit is present.
Leo needs to talk to Paul and see if this bug will be done for 2.3
Series was sent but not merged: https://lists.yoctoproject.org/pipermail/yocto/2015-October/027155.html We need to review if these still apply and do proper testing.
Changes were applied on top of current master and tested in a staging instance. Re-sent patches can be seen at: https://lists.yoctoproject.org/pipermail/yocto/2017-January/033999.html https://lists.yoctoproject.org/pipermail/yocto/2017-January/034000.html
Patches sent but probably not yet merged. Moving to M3.
A reminder was sent to the ML. Moving to 2.4, waiting for merging.
Change for single result redirect is implemented in: c8c25fb641c500354cf36c3c59abb6f9fe96d223 pending a v2 for the recipe search requirement.
It was suggested that a different approach should be taken for this request. The new patch replicates the approach taken when supporting querying by "inherits" filed value: now the prefix "layer:" + the layer name can be used in queries by itself or combined with the recipe name or other supported options. for example: layer:openembedded-core patch can be viewed at: https://lists.yoctoproject.org/pipermail/yocto/2017-April/035451.html
A new patch was sent to add the search by layer name feature. This new version includes descriptive messages when wrong formatting is used for the query string and when a non-valid layer name is searched: https://lists.yoctoproject.org/pipermail/yocto/2017-May/036377.html
A reminder was sent to the mailing list. Waiting to be integrated.
Change to make layer name searchable merged in commit b958a991caa947fde2ccb073e3cb7924e162562d
