search api常常不灵 about joppy HOT 5 CLOSED

确认了搜索的关键字在Joplin里是有的。但是还是会返回[],表示为空。我用的是terminal版本。

I could only translate it online, since I don't speak any asian language. As far as I understood, the search API doesn't work for you sometimes. Could you give some example strings that don't work? I can imagine there might be problems with encoding some characters.

There is one testcase for special characters. It works for the example strings, but could be more extensive.

Also please note that the search considers only notes by default. If you want to search other things, you have to specify the type argument. For example api.search(query="xyz", type="tag") to search tags.

I have use api.search(query="xyz", type="note") to search it . I find if I create a note use the api, and in a long time ,I can't search any thing about the new note even I have try joplin sync(old notes can be searched properly). but when I try tomorrow ,I can search just use the api.search(query="xyz", type="note") ,I don't modify any command but I can search it now? I can't understand why?

by the way, I use the terminal version of joplin, does it matter?

There was already some issue about the search being slow. I will link, if I find it again. I can reproduce a delay between creating and searching the note of 5-10 seconds with the desktop version. There shouldn't be a big difference between terminal and desktop version.

Testcase:

    def test_note_search(self):
        self.api.add_notebook()
        self.api.add_note(title="test_title", body="test_content")
        for iteration in range(10):
            print(f"{iteration=}", self.api.search(query="test_content"))
            time.sleep(1)

Output:

$ python -m unittest test.test_api.Search.test_note_search
iteration=0 {'items': [], 'has_more': False}
iteration=1 {'items': [], 'has_more': False}
iteration=2 {'items': [], 'has_more': False}
iteration=3 {'items': [], 'has_more': False}
iteration=4 {'items': [], 'has_more': False}
iteration=5 {'items': [], 'has_more': False}
iteration=6 {'items': [], 'has_more': False}
iteration=7 {'items': [{'id': '8fc4b281aafc4aebb8d5b4051d93abfb', 'parent_id': '73cdaee3a814482d8d4acc64cd25813a', 'title': 'test_title'}], 'has_more': False}
iteration=8 {'items': [{'id': '8fc4b281aafc4aebb8d5b4051d93abfb', 'parent_id': '73cdaee3a814482d8d4acc64cd25813a', 'title': 'test_title'}], 'has_more': False}
iteration=9 {'items': [{'id': '8fc4b281aafc4aebb8d5b4051d93abfb', 'parent_id': '73cdaee3a814482d8d4acc64cd25813a', 'title': 'test_title'}], 'has_more': False}

OK

So in this case, the search returns the correct results only after 8 seconds. It might be more for larger or more notes. I assume this is a limitation of the Joplin search itself rather than the API. Could you check if the notes are searchable after ~10 seconds?

Hi @wujita01, could you resolve the issue?
