🚀 Enhancement: Document Search Functionality

Open EVDOG4LIFE opened this issue 9 months ago • 1 comments

🔖 Enhancement description

Add a dedicated document search functionality to the database interface that goes beyond the current filtering system.

🎤 Pitch

The current method of searching for documents through filters (column selection, operator selection, and condition search) is functional but could be significantly improved. Implementing a search bar with autocomplete functionality would streamline the document retrieval process.

This enhancement would:

  • Allow users to type search queries directly rather than configuring multiple filters
  • Provide autocompletion based on existing values in the database
  • Reduce the time spent on locating specific documents
  • Support partial text matching and potentially fuzzy search capabilities

For example, instead of selecting a column, choosing the "contains" operator, and typing a value, users could simply type their search term and see matches across relevant fields instantly.
