Search Service

This service handles search traffic and is the service you're most directly interacting with when visiting search.marginalia.nu.

It interprets a "human" query and translates it into a request that gets passed into to the index service, which finds related documents, which this service then ranks and returns to the user.

Central classes

• SearchService receives requests and delegates to the appropriate services.

• CommandEvaluator interprets a user query and acts upon it, dealing with special operations like browse: or site:.

• QueryFactory parses a search query into a machine readable query specification.

• SearchQueryIndexService passes a parsed search query to the index service, and then decorates the search results so that they can be rendered.
