Supported Strapi versions:
- Strapi v3.1.1 (recently tested)
- Strapi v3.x
(This plugin may work with the older Strapi versions, but these are not tested nor officially supported at this time.)
We recommend always using the latest version of Strapi to start your new projects.
- Nested structure support Now you can search by a component or even their children (components, related content types)
- Query by the components: When component is searchable _q parameter will apply also to all component attributes
- Using builtin filters wit components now such suffixes like _contains, _eq etc could be used together with components attributes
Component by default is not searchable. To enable Component to be included in
search or be able to filter by, you've to add option searchable to true in a
configuration json file (*.settings.json
):
For example for component called paragraph_component
You need to change
components/text/paragraph_component.json
by modifying option object:
{
"collectionName": "components_text_paragraph_components",
"info": {
"name": "paragraph_component",
"icon": "align-justify"
},
"options": {
+"searchable": true
},
"attributes": {
"body": {
"type": "text"
}
}
}
const entities = await find(model, ctx.query);
request examples: /restaurant?paragraph_component.body_contains=foo
/restaurant?paragraph_component.body_contains=foo¶graph_component.body_contains=bar
const count = await count(model, ctx.query);
request examples: /restaurant/count?paragraph_component.body_contains=bar
const entities = await search(model, ctx.query);
request examples (will search by all searchable components):
/restaurant?_q=foo
/restaurant?_q=foo¶graph_component.title_contains=foo
const count = await countSearch(model, ctx.query);
request examples (will search by all searchable components):
/restaurant?_q=foo
/restaurant?_q=foo¶graph_component.title_contains=foo
deep search for single model example resturant controller
generic deep search deep search controller
