UC_PM_SR_01 Do simple search[edit]
The user enters a search string and searches in defined item data (see PubMan_Indexing) and optionally in all files which do not have the content type “copyright transfer agreement” or “correspondence”.
Status/Schedule[edit]
- Status: implemented
- Schedule:R1
Triggers[edit]
- The user wants to search for items by providing a simple search string.
Actors[edit]
- User
Pre-Conditions[edit]
- The simple search view is displayed.
Flow of Events[edit]
- 1. The user provides a search string into the simple search field. The search string consists of one or more search tokens. A token can be a single word (= term) or a phrase (= any string in double quotes). A term may contain wildcards in the middle or at the end (* for matching zero to many characters, ? for matching zero or one character). Wildcards are not allowed as the first character. Within a phrase token, no wildcards are allowed. Phrases are automatically right truncated, thus in its context, the phrase may be followed by any character. Tokens may be combined through boolean operators (AND, OR, NOT) and grouped by parenthesis. If no boolean operator is given between the tokens AND is used as default operator.
- 2. (Optionally) The user enables search in files.
- 3. The user chooses to start the search.
- 4. The system searches for the search string in defined data of the items and creates a search result containing all items visible to the user according to his privileges. If the search term or phrase was found in a file, the search result contains a text fragment including at least 10 words before and 10 words after the found term or phrase for every hit.
- 5. The system displays the list of items of the search result. Include use case UC_PM_BD_02 view item list.
- 6. The user is satisfied with the search result. The use case ends successfully.
Alternatives[edit]
- 5a. No item matched the search request or no item from the result set is visible to the user.
- 1. The system displays a message (MSG_PM_SR_01). Continue with Flow of Events step 6.
Post-Conditions / Results[edit]
- The search result is displayed.
Discussion[edit]

Actors[edit]
- User
Pre-Conditions[edit]
- None.
Flow of Events[edit]
- 1. The user chooses to execute an advanced search.
- 2. The system displays the advanced search view, the following information should be searchable (see PubMan_Indexing): Keywords, Fulltext, Language of publication, Any Field, Genre, Persons with the option to select a CreatorRole, Organizations (see also scenario for history of affiliations in advanced search) [1], Title, Classification, Dates with the option to select a DateType and to specify a range, Event, Identifier, Rev. Method, Source.
In addition the user has the possibility to restrict the search:- to items, which have a context,
- to items, which have a component with public available component (access level="public"), restricted-private available component (access level="restricted-private"), restricted-audience available component (access level="restricted-audience") or embargoed available component (access level="restricted-embargoed")
- or to items where the component has or doesn't have a certain content-category (e.g. all items, which have a component attached where the content-category is "supplementary material).
In addition, the user has the option to search for strings in local tags. - or to items, where the full text could not be indexed (work around for R5)
- 3. The user chooses one or more search field(s) and specifies the search string. By default the operator between the search fields is AND. The search string syntax is defined in UC_PM_SR_01 Do simple search.
- 4. (Optionally) The user changes one or several operators between the search field(s) to AND, OR or NOT. The final search query will be interpreted by its order, thus by implicitly setting brackets from left to right.
- 5. The user chooses to start the search.
- 6. The system searches in the defined item data of the items for the search strings and creates a search result containing all items visible to the user according to his privileges. If the search term or phrase was found in a file, the search result contains a text fragment including at least 10 words before and 10 words after the found term or phrase for every hit.
- 7. The system displays the search fields, the search strings, the selected options, the operators and the list of items of the search result. Include use case UC_PM_BD_02 view item list.
- 8. (Optionally) The user chooses to revise the search.
- 8.1. The system displays the advanced search view again with the search criteria the user entered before.
- 8.2. (Optionally) The user removes one or more search criteria.
- 8.3. Continue with Flow of events step 3.
- 9. The user is satisfied with the search result. The use case ends successfully.
Alternatives[edit]
- 7a. No item matched the search request or no item from the result set is visible to the user.
- 1. The system displays a message (MSG_PM_SR_01). Continue with Flow of Events step 8.

Discussion[edit]
Talk:PubMan_Func_Spec_Search#UC_PM_SR_03 Do advanced search
Date search[edit]
Details on Date search are specified here: Functional Specification for Date Search
Indexing[edit]
please see PubMan Indexing
Search query syntax[edit]
- ?, *, \ are used as logical operators and are not escaped by default. If user wants to search for one of these, s/he has to escape the character. That means one has to use a backslash before the searching character e.g. \?, \*, \\
- +, -, &, |, !, (, ), {, }, [, ], ^, ~, : are escaped per default
Future developments[edit]
- Expert Search: one textfield for freely defined queries, supporting "Klammerausdruecke"
HTML Prototype[edit]
- The publicly available HTML prototype for searching and for other functionalities can be accessed from here: eSciDoc Prototyping.
References[edit]
- ↑ The search for Organizational units is possible in two ways. a) select the OU from the OU tree, which will copy the ID of the OU into the search field. b) free text search for an OU.
