When working with hierarchical subject headings, it is sometimes helpful
to do a search for all records with a specific subject, plus
broader/narrower/related subjects. This patch adds support for these
"exploded" subject searches to Koha.
To test:
1) Make sure you have a bunch of hierarchical subjects. I created
geographical subjects for "Arizona," "United States," and "Phoenix,"
and linked them together using 551s, and made sure I had a half
dozen records linking to each (but not all to all three).
2) Do a search for su-br:Arizona (or choose "Subject and broader terms"
on the advanced search screen with "more options" displayed), and
check that you get the records with the subject "Arizona" and the
records with the subject "United States"
3) Do a search for su-na:Arizona (or choose "Subject and narrower terms"
on the advanced search screen with "more options" displayed), and
check that you get the records with the subject "Arizona" and the
records with the subject "Phoenix"
4) Do a search for su-rl:Arizona (or choose "Subject and related terms"
on the advanced search screen with "more options" displayed), and
check that you get the records with the subject "Arizona," the
records with the subject "United States," and the records with the
subject "Phoenix"
5) Ensure that other searches still work (keyword, subject, ccl,
whatever)
6) Sign off
Technical details:
This patch adds a shim in front of C4::Search::buildQuery in order to
preprocess the query and call the _handle_exploding_search callback.
This shim will allow us to gradually offload query parsing to a new
query parser module.
