Search

[voroyam]

I would like to understand how the search does the rating on results.

If I type in occ, I would think that the document with the occ in the name would be the first on the list, but it's not. I would like to understand how it's being calculated what get's more points.
Then the 10.1 version is rated higher on the list then 10.0. Is there a reason?

The ordering beside the score is undefined. The more often the searched keywords are present in a document the higher score it gets. With the same score the ordering could be random.

We are simply dropping all documents into elasticsearch without any further configuration.

If you got ideas how to improve it look at the index function at https://github.com/owncloud/docs/blob/master/generator/generate-site.js#L38 and improve the index weighting. Reading the index is handled at https://github.com/owncloud/docs-ui/blob/master/src/js/vendor/elastic.js#L36

owncloud/docs-ui#76 could be also relevant

Relates to #797.

Thanks for the feedback, @tboerger.

the other issues are better for finding a solution than this one.
