[GeoNode-users] Extend autocomplete-light with new fields

[Toni Schönbuchner]

Hi together,

this might be an easy one. In geonode 2.4 I have extended autocomplete registry to search in more fields
on layers left side title-search-input.

https://github.com/GeoNode/geonode/blob/2.4.x/geonode/base/autocomplete_light_registry.py <https://github.com/GeoNode/geonode/blob/2.4.x/geonode/base/autocomplete_light_registry.py>

autocomplete_light.register(ResourceBase,
	search_fields=[‘title‘,’abstract’,’purpose'],
	autocomplete_js_attributes={'placeholder': 'Resource name..', },)

then changed the base model to return abstract and purpose content as well:

https://github.com/GeoNode/geonode/blob/2.4.x/geonode/base/models.py#L342 <https://github.com/GeoNode/geonode/blob/2.4.x/geonode/base/models.py#L342>
    def __unicode__(self):
        return self.title + ’,’ + self.abstract + ’,’ + self.purpose


The result is a user can search f.e. for ‚dog‘ and autocomplete shows choices like:
Dog Title, Dogs Heaven, the purpose is sleep
Dogs world, Dogs Hell, the purpose is eat

All that is missing is that I do not want to show a field when the search term is not
found in it. F.e. if purpose does not has ‚dog‘ autoselect should not show it.
Dog Title, Dogs Heaven
…

From the documentation of DAL I assumed that the way to go is to create/register a subclass like:

class CustomResource(autocomplete_light.AutocompleteModelBase):
    search_fields = ['title', ‚abstract‘,’purpose']
    model = ResourceBase

autocomplete_light.register(CustomResource)

and override the httpResponse method. Unfortunately this basic step already ends in a 404.
Maybe one could bring me on the right track how to achieve filtering the return.

Thanks,

Toni
