- Database search
- ---------------
- This module provides a database based implementation of the Search API. The
- database and target to use for storing and accessing the indexes can be selected
- when creating a new server.
- All Search API datatypes are supported by using appropriate SQL datatypes for
- their respective columns (with "String"/"URI", and "Integer"/"Duration" being
- equivalent).
- The "direct" parse mode for queries will result in a simple splitting of the
- query string into keys. Additionally, search keys containing whitespace will be
- split, as searching for phrases is currently not supported.
- Due to SQL limitations, fulltext searches are always case-insensitive.
- Supported optional features
- ---------------------------
- Regarding third-party features, this module supports the "search_api_facets"
- feature, introduced by the module of the same name. This lets you create
- facetted searches for any index lying on a database server.
- If you feel some service option is missing, or have other ideas for improving
- this implementation, please file a feature request in the project's issue queue,
- at [http://drupal.org/project/issues/search_api], using the "Database search"
- component.
- Known problems
- --------------
- Currently, Drupal doesn't support setting the table collation when creating
- tables. This might cause problems when you are using MySQL (maybe also other
- databases) and want to index data which can contain accented characters,
- umlauts, etc. (à, á, ä, …).
- To resolve the issue, please set "utf8_bin" as the collation for all tables
- starting with "search_api_db_".
- See [1] for details.
