I'm trying to do paging of results from a Cloudant database.
I've tried using bookmark, but the fact that the final page of results still has a bookmark is a problem for me, since it means that apps using the database can't tell if there's a 'next page' or not without requesting it.
Instead, I've tried using skip with a URL like this:
https://samdutton.cloudant.com/mydb/_design/mydesigndoc/_search/mysearch?
q=foo:bar&skip=10
However, this isn't working: I always get the first page of results.
Am I doing something wrong, or should this work?
Skipping results isn't supported in search. See the search documentation for the full list of supported options.

I would like to get images from a search engine, to run some automated tests without the need to go online and pick them by hand.
I found an old example from 5 years ago (ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/services/search/images), which sadly does not work anymore. What is the current method to do so in Python3? Ideally I would like to be able to pass a string with the search name, and retrieve a set amount of images, at full size.
I don't really mind which search engine is used; I just want to be sure that it is supported for the time being. Also I would like to avoid Selenium; I am planning to run this without any UI nor using the browser, all from terminal.
Have you heard of pixabay? There is a nice python wrapper for working with it as well.
Found a pretty good solution using BeautifulSoup.
It does not work on Google, since I get 403, but when faking the header in the request, is possible to get sometimes, data. I will have to experiment with different other sites.
So far the workflow is to search in the browser so I can get the url to pass to beautifulsoup. Once I get the url in code, I replaced the query part with a variable, so I can pass it programmatically.
Then I parse the output of beautifulsoup to extract the links to the images, and retrieve them using requests.
I wish there was a public API to get also parameters like picture size and such, but I found nothing that works currently.
I'm having a problem that just randomly occured, and I have no idea what caused this and how to fix it.
So I have a searchbox that is supposed to use my search settings. Here are my current search settings:
Settings
Settings 2
My problem is that even though I configure my searchbox to use this sites' search settings, it ignores it. Instead of using /results.aspx?u={searchboxQuery} as specified in the settings, it uses /results.aspx?k={searchboxQuery}
I'm also using a custom Result Source:
{searchboxQuery} Path:https://mypage/Pages
The searchbox works if you provide exact matches, but if you try to shorten a word, no result is displayed. The result query itself works correctly, displaying all the correct pages, but not with search queries.
Any help would be highly appreciated, it's quite an annoying problem
I remember running into this a while back. I ended up using a Search Results template from the Pages library (Publishing needs to be turned on. Trying to create the connections myself was too much of a headache.
I have a slight problem I have been trying to address for a client I have been working with. We have 4 sets of single pages that are loading content from a database using PHP based upon a get string that is provided. These pages that are generated are optimized well for SEO and have alt tags for images and Content that we need to be able to search using a search feature.
Now i had assumed (An everyone knows what assuming gets you) that these pages by default would be able to be searched by the concrete 5 built in search feature. But it doesn't work. If I search for a word that I know is definitely on one of these pages even multiple times no results are found.
How can I make Concrete5 search these pages. If its no do able by a default or by a plugin, then can someone please offer some advice on how to fix this. This is an important feature and must be completed.
EDIT: See my comment below. I still need some help or direction here as CSE inst much of an option.
EDIT2: It may be viable for me to install a crawler and a custom search engine to address my problems. I was thinking of spider. Any other suggestions on that or other options are much appreciated!
Unfortunately C5 doesn't provide a way to do this -- the only way to tap into the search index is with blocks. And even if you created a phony block just to pass content from the single_page through to the search index, there's no way to say that some content is from one URL while other content is from another URL (which you'd need to do since your single_page controller is handling many different URL's).
I don't know of a way to achieve what you want to do (and it appears that nobody else does either -- http://www.concrete5.org/community/forums/customizing_c5/make-content-in-single-pages-searchable/ ), other than building your own internal search engine.
EDIT: I just did some digging, and thought that perhaps you could manually insert records into the PageSearchIndex table and specify the searchable content and the desired path there -- but this won't work because it relies on one cID (collection id, a.k.a. page id) per entry -- so you'd only be able to insert one record for the top-level single_page path.
I think the simplest solution here would be to create your own searching infrastructure for your single_pages (like some kind of function in the controller that would return an array of page paths and searchable content for each one), then override the search block and perform an additional search of your single_page -- then combine the results on the search results page there. Or just use google site search for your site, which will actually crawl the pages and hence find your various single_page urls: https://www.google.com/cse/
Best of luck.
I have not tested this, but maybe you can put a function getSearchableContent() in the single pages controller like you do for blocks. This would return the string to be searched. Would look something like this:
function getSearchableContent() {
// ... compose searchstring depending on the queried content.
return $searchstring;
}
But I don't know if this works for dynamic content. If not, I'd look into C5's search index core classes and try to extend them for your project.
I am new to islandora. I have it integrated with solr and it works fine but the results only show on the page with the following URL:
somesite.com/islandora/search
This is fine but I would like the results to show on a different page inside a view or a block.
Is this actually possible?
After reading the documentation it doesn't seem like it is. But I believe this should be a rather slandered requirement.
I have tried using URL Aliases, with no luck.
Has anyone done this??
If you have integrated the apache solr with sit Search then there is a module named Search API Page Block, which can help you showing result in block but it will only work for title of the nodes.
As it explains -
Currently, this module is only useful when placing search result
blocks on node pages, since it currently only uses $node->title as the
search keywords. Future development can lead to other uses, including
using Taxonomy terms, Context module, or custom fields to set the
keywords.
With a lot of search engines, you can find the string you are searching in the URL.
However, http://drugcompare.destinationrx.com/Home.aspx does not let me do this. When I search something, the resulting URL is http://drugcompare.destinationrx.com/DrugCompare.aspx no matter what.
Is there any way I can find out whether I can search the website by adding something to the end of the URL, like "?query=searchstring" instead of using the form provided on the page? Basically I need a unique URL.
that website you pointed at uses POST to send data for its search query which means you wont be able to see or append it on the URL bar. The reason for that is either for security or the search query it generates is a complex object or too long and does not fit in a url. websites such as search engines uses GET, with that you can append your search query in the url by following the syntax it generates.
