Phrase Searching for Metadata

[joncameron]

Description

Phrase searching is possible in Avalon's current configuration by enclosing a search phrase in quote characters, but extra results also appear for things that seem beyond the scope of the phrase.

Phrase searching isn't working as expected for metadata in MCO: search matched for a substring within a phrase and not the exact phrase string.

For different cases of "Found in" tokenization in search we may be able to keep it a phrase just for the metadata search results rather than the other parts as well.

Feedback on search and default "OR":

in searching for a phrase on MCO that it is searching for Term OR Term rather than AND — I did a search for Rich Searles (no quotes), Richard Searles and then tried "Richard Searles". All bring up lots of results not relevant to my need. And in addition to doing an OR search, it's also truncating the search - the first hit for the 2nd search brought up https://media.dlib.indiana.edu/media_objects/1544bq372
which has Richard and then elsewhere in the record, Searle (no "s" at the end). (the real recording I wanted came up as the 3rd result)

We'll need to look at the case above—deleting the transcript document for 1544bq372 in mco-staging removed it from returning as a result.

Done Looks Like

• Query terms wrapped in quotes are treated as phrases
• Results matching only substrings of the phrase are not returned
