EnterpriseSearch-APP

Scope of functions

The d.velop enterprise search app is the main HTTP interface for searching your system landscape.

Using the API function

You will learn how to use the d.velop enterprise search programming interface for your own developments below.

Authentication

Some interfaces from d.velop enterprise search require a valid authentication from d.ecs identity provider.

The API documentation for d.ecs identity provider describes how you can acquire this kind of authentication.

Deploying providers

You can use this function to deploy providers. Providers are systems that can be searched. The providers are displayed in d.velop enterprise search.

The following requirements must be met before your app’s providers can be displayed in d.velop enterprise search:

  • The app must be registered with the http gateway app (only on-premises).
  • The app must deliver a link relation (enterprisesearchfeatures) to the enterprise search configuration.
  • The app must deliver an OpenSearch description for every provider.

In order for d.velop enterprise search to display the providers of your app, your app must deliver a link relation enterprisesearchfeaturesunder the base address to a GET query with the request header "Accept: application/hal+json".

Representation of the resource:

{
  "_links": {
    "enterprisesearchfeatures": {
      "href": string
    }
  }
}
PropertyTypeDescriptionRequired
_linksObjectLink relations with the resources of an appYes
_links.enterprisesearchfeaturesObjectObject that contains a path to the enterprise search configuration of an appYes

Below is an example of this kind of response in JSON format:

{
  "_links": {
    "enterprisesearchfeatures": {
      "href": "/exampleapp/enterprisesearchfeatures"
    }
  }
}

Description of the enterprise search configuration

Via the URL href, a JSON object with the following specifications must be returned in the event of a GET query with request header "Accept: application/hal+json".

         "activeByDefault": false
      }
   ]
}

Description of the login resource

Via the URL loginUrl, the user must be redirected to the external system in the event of a GET query. The authentication information must be saved in the corresponding app for the current user and used accordingly in a search.

info: The URL is only called if the LoggedIn resource responds with the HTTP status code 401 (UNAUTHORIZED).

Description of the LoggedIn resource

Via the URL loggedInUrl, a check must be performed in the event of a GET query to determine whether the current user has access to the external system. The following return values are allowed:

HTTP status codeDescription
200The user is authenticated and can perform a search in the external system
401The user is not authenticated

Description of the config resource

Via the URL ConfigUrl, a JSON object with the following specifications must be delivered in the event of a GET query with the request header "Accept: application/hal+json".

Representation of the resource:

[
   {
      "caption": string,
      "description": string,
      "href": string,
      "keywords": [string, string, ...],
      "configurationState": number
   }
]

      "caption": "Awesome App configuration",
      "description": "Short description of the configuration",
      "href": "/exampleapp/oauth2/config",
      "keyWords": ["oauth2", "awesome", "login"],
      "configurationState": 0
   }
]

Communicating changes in the search provider configuration

You can use this function to update the search provider listing from within your configuration interface.

Let us assume your configuration option has a status with errors, for example, because connection data is not correct. In this case, the administrator navigates to the configuration interface by choosing Manage search provider. After you have corrected the connection data, you want to reload the search provider listing.

Reloading the search provider - this is how it works

  1. Use the API of the shell app to send a ResourceEvent.
  2. Enter “changed” under Eventname. The URI transmitted must correspond to the currently displayed configuration option.
  3. You can find information about sending ResourceEvents in the API documentation for the Shell app.

Your enterprise search configuration is retrieved again.

Description of the OpenSearch description file (.osdx)

Below provider.description, you must specify a URL that returns an OpenSearch description file.

OpenSearch description file:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" ?>
<OpenSearchDescription xmlns="http://a9.com/-/spec/opensearch/1.1/" xmlns:sru="http://a9.com/-/opensearch/extensions/sru/2.0/">
    <ShortName>E-Mails</ShortName>
    <Description>Enterprise Search Provider for Mircosoft Exchange (E-Mails)</Description>
    <Url type="application/rss+xml" template="https://wathe02.d-velop.de/exchangeadapter/search/email?q={searchTerms}&amp;p={startPage}&amp;c={count}">Exchange</Url>
    <Url type="application/sru+xml" template="https://wathe02.d-velop.de/exchangeadapter/search/email?q={query}&amp;p={startRecord}&amp;c={maximumRecords}">Exchange</Url>
    <Image>/exchangeadapter/static/images/favicon.png</Image>
</OpenSearchDescription>

Explanation of the properties:

PropertyTypeDescriptionRequired
ShortNameStringShort description of the provider. The user uses this description to decide whether they would like to perform a search in the provider.Yes
DescriptionStringShort explanation of what this provider searches through.No
UrlStringURL template that is called during a searchYes
Url.typeStringOutput format of the search results. application/rss+xml and application/sru+xml are interpreted. The type application/sru+xml must be offered in order to be able to return facets.Yes
Url.templateStringURL that is called during the search. The possible placeholders can be taken from the following table.Yes
ImageStringURL for an icon for the providerNo

Explanation of the placeholders:

PlaceholderDescriptionFormat
{searchTerms}User’s search termapplication/rss+xml
{startPage}Index of the page that should be returned, starting with 1.application/rss+xml
{count}Maximum number of search results that should be returned per page.application/rss+xml
{query}User’s search term in CQL format, including filteringsapplication/sru+xml
{startRecord}Index of the entry (record) that should be returned next, starting with 1.application/sru+xml
{maximumRecords}Maximum number of search results that should be returned per page.application/sru+xml

CQL format

If you offer the format application/sru+xml as an output format, the placeholder {query} is transferred in CQL format. This format uses the facets and search terms that were previously returned to transfer both the user’s search term and additional filterings to you. d.velop enterprise search uses only a small part of the CQL format, which is why it is enough to support the following formats:

  • cql.anywhere=(“<User search term>“)
  • cql.anywhere=(“<User search term>“) and <facetedResults.facet.index>=(“<facetedResults.facet.terms.query>“)
  • cql.anywhere=(“<User search term>“) and <facetedResults.facet.index>=(“<facetedResults.facet.terms.query1>“ or “<facetedResults.facet.terms.query2>“)
  • cql.anywhere=(“<User search term>“) and <facetedResults.facet.index1>=(“<facetedResults.facet.terms.query1>“ or “<facetedResults.facet.terms.query2>“) and <facetedResults.facet.index>=(“<facetedResults.facet.terms.query3>“ or “<facetedResults.facet.terms.query4>“)

The placeholders <facetedResults.facet.index> and <facetedResults.facet.terms.query1> correspond to the values of the search result that was previously returned. You can find additional detailed information about the placeholders here.

With this function, you can start a search with all providers that are known in d.velop enterprise search and use the results in your app. The search is performed using the format OpenSearch. Learn more about how you can get the OpenSearch description file.

OpenSearch description file

The URL /enterprisesearch/opensearch returns an HTML page that you can use to download the two OpenSearch description files.

Download description file
The link leads to an OpenSearch description file, which you can use according to the format OpenSearch. Alternatively, you can also call the description file directly by querying the following URL:

/enterprisesearch/opensearch/description

Download description file for Windows
The link leads to an OpenSearch description file that uses the d.ecs identity tunnel to cache the cookie. The description file can be used with the format OpenSearch. Use this description file to integrate d.velop enterprise search into your local file explorer. Alternatively, you can also call the description file directly with the following URL:

/enterprisesearch/opensearch/description?identitytunnel=true

Embedding the enterprise search app in third-party applications

You can adjust the display by configuring the following settings so you can easily use d.velop enterprise search from any third-party application.

URL for embedding the enterprise search app

You can use the following URL to embed the company-wide search without a direct search query:

/enterprisesearch/search/

Using parameters to influence the behavior

You can add parameters to the base URL to control the behavior of the embedded company-wide search. The following table contains the possible parameters.

ParameterDescriptionExample
qWith the parameter q, you can transfer a search term that is directly searched for in the company-wide search when the call is made. You need to transfer the search term in URL-coded form./enterprisesearch/search?q=search term
pYou can use the parameter p to limit the providers used to execute the search. You can find the ID of the provider in the provider management./enterprisesearch/search?p=ProviderId
dUsing the parameter d you can limit your search results to a certain time range in advance. The start and end time must be passed in a JSON and encoded as a URL./enterprisesearch/search?d=DateFilterJSON
minimalViewYou can use the parameter minimalView to specify that the display should be lightweight and minimalist. No logo is displayed./enterprisesearch/search?minimalView
hideProviderSelectionYou can use the parameter hideProviderSelection to determine whether the provider selection should be displayed. Possible values: start (the provider selection on the start page is hidden), all (the provider selection on the start page and on the results page is hidden),/enterprisesearch/search?hideProviderSelection=start
newTabWith the parameter newTab, you can specify that the hit list should open in a new tab after a search./enterprisesearch/search?newTab
providerViewUsing the parameter providerView you can specify how the provider selection on the results page is displayed. Possible values: dropdown (default value), smallcards, bigcards/enterprisesearch/search?providerView=bigcards

Example:

/enterprisesearch/search?q=Suchbegriff&p=598238e4ed7df5505cdc9304e3371b88-7f0b4762571d05f45f62e4d43b8f6f05&hideProviderSelection&newTab&minimalView

Options for using the parameter p

You can use the parameter p to specify which provider should be used to execute the search. That way, you determine the specific ID in the configuration interface of the company-wide search:

  1. Navigate to Manage search provider.
  2. Open the context menu of the provider.
  3. Copy the ID.

You can transfer several providers if you use a hyphen as a separator.

/enterprisesearch/search?q={search term}&p={ProviderID1-ProviderID2}

If you want to use all providers for the search, set the parameter p=””.

If you do not specify the parameter p, the company-wide search performs the search using the last user-specific provider selection made by the user.

Using the parameter d

The parameter d requires a JSON with the following properties:

PropertyDescriptionExample
startDefines the start time of the search in ISO-8601 format"2020-08-01T00:00:00.000Z"
endDefines the end time of the search in ISO-8601 format"2020-09-30T23:59:59.999Z"

Start time must be before the end time.

Adding own functions

Extension points give you the option or adding your own functions to d.velop enterprise search. For example, you can add context actions to the detail view.

Preparing your app

So that extensions for context actions are found, your app must provide an interface, which you will learn about below. d.velop enterprise search uses the HTTP GET request concept for the root resource (systemBaseUri path with the app name) of apps that provide extensions. All apps that are registered in the HttpGateway app are queried.

Providing the URL for extensions

The administrator can manually update root resources of apps on the page /enterprisesearch/extensions. An app’s response is checked in terms of the link relation enterprisesearchextensions. This link relation is a signal that the app offers extensions for d.velop enterprise search. d.velop enterprise search executes an HTTP GET query for the specified links and expects a normed JSON object with the HTTP status code 200 from the responding app.

Request

GET /myapp/
Accept: application/hal+json

Response

HTTP/1.1 200 OK
Content-Type: application/hal+json

{
    "_links" : {
        "enterprisesearchextensions" : {
            "href" : "/myapp/enterprisesearchextensions"
        }
    }
}

Displaying extension points

You can display the registered extension points. To do so, call the URL /enterprisesearch/extensions in the browser.

Request

GET /enterprisesearch/extensions
Accept: text/html

Adding context actions to the detail view

You can add context actions to the detail view for a search result. These context actions are also summarized for a search result in the menu for context actions. The app that wants to provide an extension must return an HTTP response in JSON format under the link relation enterprisesearchextensions. The following information must be provided for every context action:

  • Context of the extension point: ESObjectDetailsContextAction
  • Activation conditions for displaying the context action
  • Display name of the context action in the available translations
  • Link to the symbol of the context action
  • The action that should be executed if the user has clicked on the context action. This is where you need to specify a relative link that is called by d.velop enterprise search via HTTP GET.

Example The example shows how you can structure the HTTP response of the link relation enterprisesearchextensions to add a context action using an extension point ESObjectDetailsContextAction. You define different properties for every context action.

{
    "extensions": [
    {
        "id": "myapp.openExternalApp",
        "activationConditions": [{
            "propertyId": "mimetype",
            "operator": "or",
            "values": ["application/pdf","image/jpeg"]
        }],
        "captions": [{
            "culture": "de",
            "caption": "Externe Applikation öffnen"
        },
        {
            "culture": "en",
            "caption": "Open external application"
        }],
        "context": "ESObjectDetailsContextAction",
        "uriTemplate": "/myapp/dosomething?id={esobject.attributes.document_id}",
        "iconUri": "/myapp/images/goto.png",
        "openInNewWindow": true
    }]
}
PropertyTypeDescriptionRequired
idStringStipulate the unique technical name that is used to differentiate the extension from other extensions.Yes
activationConditionsObject arrayFor every extension, the application communicates the activation conditions under which the context action should be displayed. A context action is displayed when all individual conditions apply. If the list of activation conditions does not contain an entry, the extension is generally active. Enter the activation conditions as an array.No
activationConditions.propertyIdStringSpecifies the property for which the activation condition is checked. You can find possible values further below.Yes
activationConditions.operatorStringSpecifies how an individual condition is evaluated. You can choose the following operators: or: A ´or´ condition is fulfilled if the current value of the property corresponds to one of the values. Capitalization is not considered. notOr: A notOr condition is fulfilled if the current value of the property does not correspond to any of the values. Capitalization is not considered.Yes
activationConditions.valuesString arraySpecifies the values in the form of an array, and they are compared with the value of the propertyId.Yes
captionsObject arrayEvery context action communicates the name under which the context action is displayed. You can also consider different languages. If you do so, you need to specify the language-dependent names as an array. Enter the translation for the following languages so the language packages are completely compatible: cs (Czech), da (Danish), de (German), en (English), es (Spanish), fr (French), hr (Croatian), it (Italian), nl (Dutch), pl (Polish), sr (Serbian)Yes
captions.cultureStringSpecifies the language of the context action. The information contains the language code (e.g., en) and, optionally, an additional region code (e.g., en-GB).Yes
captions.captionStringSpecifies the language-dependent name of the context action.Yes
