eZ Find: Cross class filter

Monday 24 January 2011 12:40:55 pm

Hello Anders,

ezfind fetch function looks like :

{set $search=fetch( ezfind,search,
                        hash( 'query', $search_text,
                              'offset', $view_parameters.offset,
                              'limit', $page_limit,
                              'sort_by', hash( 'score', 'desc' ),
                              'facet', $defaultSearchFacets,
                              'filter', $filterParameters,
                              'publish_date', $dateFilter,
                              'spell_check', array( true() ) 
                             ))}

Assuming Article, Product and Persons have class_ids 34, 67 and 55 (for example), you can add one argument to your fetch function to get :

{set $search=fetch( ezfind,search,
                        hash( 'query', $search_text,
                              'offset', $view_parameters.offset,
                              'limit', $page_limit,
                              'sort_by', hash( 'score', 'desc' ),
                              'facet', $defaultSearchFacets,
                              'filter', $filterParameters,
                              'publish_date', $dateFilter,
                              'class_id', array(34, 67, 55),
                              'spell_check', array( true() ) 
                             ))}

Then, ezfind will retrieve only nodes among Articles, Products and Persons.

Hope this helps.
