Each and every Model which is Eligible for search has
1. Search Schema and Search Key which is used by Haystack and Whoosh to do the Searching
Example
```
search_schema = ('fullname', )
search_key = 'name'
```
2. The search is carried out on the dields mention in the file apps/search_indexes.py
```
class AppIndex(indexes.SearchIndex, indexes.Indexable):
text = indexes.EdgeNgramField(document = True, use_template = True)
Bundle_Name = indexes.CharField(model_attr='Bundle_Name',null=True)
categories = indexes.MultiValueField(model_attr = 'categories', null=True)
stars = indexes.IntegerField(model_attr = 'stars',null = True)
def get_model(self):
return App
def prepare_tags(self, obj):
return [tag.id for tag in obj.categories.all()]
```
3. Search Template can be located at templates/search/indexes/apps/app_text.txt
This file is responsible to handle the Indexing part of the Search when the app is first added to the search index by Whoosh
```
{{ object.Bundle_Name }}
{{ object.downloads }}
{{ object.stars }}
{% for tag in object.app.categories.all %}
{{ tag.name }}
{% endfor %}
```
Searching can be done on more specific fields if we figure out how the search indexing works and then addig it to Releases model rather than Apps model.
