Empty query returns no results about meilisearch-rust HOT 8 CLOSED

Hello @longfellowone!

Currently, the MeiliSearch placeholder works only when passing a q=null or no q at all, but q='' returns indeed no result.

This will be changed in the next release! meilisearch/meilisearch#916

from meilisearch-rust.

Whoops I ran a very old version.

Figured that was the case. Until the next version is released is there anyway to send in a null query using the current rust api as new() does not accept an Option?

from meilisearch-rust.

I will add this feature in #46. The query will be an Option too.

from meilisearch-rust.

FYI the next release of MeiliSearch (v0.15.0) will be out in two weeks and will contain this change (q='' will return results as placeholder search).
If there is any change, I will let you know as the public pre-release will be out on Monday!

from meilisearch-rust.

Yes, but it would be more idiomatic to make query optional.

from meilisearch-rust.

I don't understand. According to the meilisearch response, the query string is mandatory.

@Mubelotix: Hum weird, what is the version of your MeiliSearch instance? I don't succeed to reproduce your error with the v0.14.0
