=========================
PostgreSQL Trigram Search
=========================
This addon provides the ability to create GIN or GiST indexes of char and text
fields and also to use the search operator `%` in search domains. Currently
this module doesn't change the backend search or anything else. It provides
only the possibilty to perfrom the fuzzy search for external addons.
Installation
============
#. The PostgreSQL extension ``pg_trgm`` should be available. In debian based
distribution you have to install the `postgresql-contrib` module.
#. Install the ``pg_trgm`` extension to your database or give your postgresql
user the ``SUPERUSER`` right (this allows the odoo module to install the
extension to the database).
Configuration
=============
If the odoo module is installed:
#. You can define ``GIN`` and ``GiST`` indexes for `char` and `text` via
`Settings -> Database Structure -> Trigram Index`. The index name will
automatically created for new entries.
Usage
=====
#. You can create an index for the `name` field of `res.partner`.
#. In the search you can use:
``self.env['res.partner'].search([('name', '%', 'Jon Miller)])``
#. In this example the function will return positive result for `John Miller` or
`John Mill`.
#. You can tweak the number of strings to be returned by adjusting the set limit
(default: 0.3). NB: Currently you have to set the limit by executing the
following SQL statment:
``self.env.cr.execute("SELECT set_limit(0.2);")``
#. Another interesting feature is the use of ``similarity(column, 'text')``
function in the ``order`` parameter to order by similarity. This module just
contains a basic implementation which doesn't perform validations and has to
start with this function. For example you can define the function as
followed:
``similarity(%s.name, 'John Mil') DESC" % self.env['res.partner']._table``
For further questions read the Documentation of the
`pg_trgm <https://www.postgresql.org/docs/current/static/pgtrgm.html>`_ module.
Known issues / Roadmap
======================
* Modify the general search parts (e.g. in tree view or many2one fields)
* add better `order by` handling
