When an identifier is searched for in the "all" filter, too many results are returned

[laurenwalker]

I was searching for a metadata doc that I just submitted by pasting the UUID into the "All" filter. (e.g. urn:uuid:2085065f-11b4-48a0-9f21-f8ae3325cf25).

This results in the query: -obsoletedBy:* AND -formatId:*dataone.org/collections* AND -formatId:*dataone.org/portals* AND urn\:uuid\:2085065f-11b4-48a0-9f21-f8ae3325cf25 AND formatType:METADATA

This returned thousands of results because the default field will match substrings. So any object with a matching identifier fragment is returned.

We should try to catch queries for identifiers (possibly just watch for urn:uuid and doi:prefixes), and wrap the identifier in quotes " so only exact matches are returned

Interesting. Is the "All" filter just the top "Search" box? When I search exactly for a PID in that box, like https://pasta.lternet.edu/package/metadata/eml/knb-lter-jrn/210385004/17 or doi:10.18739/A21N7XN0C, or a UUID, I only get one (the correct) result. Am I doing something different here?

Hmm, which environment did you search in?

search.dataone.org:

Hmm, this might be a difference between the MN and CN Solr indexes, or the DataONE theme and non-DataONE themes. Because I can see what you're saying on search.dataone.org, but I can still reproduce this bug on the KNB. (Example: doi:10.5063/F1NP22S4.)

Weird. Check out doi:10.18739/A2NG4GS10 on arcticdata.io. Works similar there.
