m_search
The m_search model provides access to different kinds of search queries for searching through models.
Most searches in Zotonic are implemented in the mod_search
module, searching through the rsc table in different kinds of ways.
Though, any module can implement a search by observing the
search_query notification.
The search module is used inside templates. For example, the following snippet fetches the latest 10 modified pages in the “text” category:
{% for id in m.search[{latest cat="text" pagelen=10}] %}
{{ m.rsc[id].title }}
{% endfor %}
Another example, searching for a text and requesting the second page with 20 results at a time:
{% for id, rank in m.search.paged[{fulltext text=query_string page=2 pagelen=20}] %}
{{ m.rsc[id].title }}
{% endfor %}
