I am using MultiStep offline search in SKMaps. I have a search bar in my application, where a user can type an address to search in an offline downloaded package say California. While writing an address in the search bar , I want to show address suggestions to user. Is this possible with Skobbler? I could not find any api provided.
In the current APi there is not "one line search" (type the whole address in a single line) and no out-of-the-box typeahead.
You can implement the typeahead by using the user's input as a search term for the multiline search - http://developer.skobbler.com/getting-started/ios#sec20 - you will have to decide if that term is a city or a street in a particular city for this to properly work.
On another note - we are working on a new geocoding implementation that would provide one line search and typeahead - this should be out in Q1 or Q2 2015

Requirement:
Need to search business through the address and in the result list Business name should return.
Problem:
When we search by only address of the business ( without business name ), then in the result list it returns only the address or place and does not return business name.
To get the business name in the result list, I had passed "Opennow = true" in the request, which works well and return business name in the results set whenever we search through only address.
But the challenge here is that, the Opennow = true returns only those businesses which opening hours are open at the search time, out of the opening hours it returns blank data.
I need the list of businesses with their name whenever we search through address only regardless of opening hours open or closed.
This is the API I am using to get text search data:
"https://maps.googleapis.com/maps/api/place/textsearch/json?query=&opennow=true&types=establishment®ion=us&key="
I found resolution for your query in the google documentation:
https://developers.google.com/maps/documentation/javascript/examples/places-autocomplete-hotelsearch
Could you try the above, surely, it requires modifications.
Hope that will solve your problem
Thanks
In my C# application, I am using Microsoft Graph SDK with Azure AD implementation.
Please suggest me how to search users in my organisations (global contacts) based on search parameters .
For example , if "Raj" is the search parameter, I should be able to get all users with their name contains "Raj" or email address contains "Raj".
I found this method to get all users - "graphClient.Users.Request().GetAsync();". but, with this method limited response, I am not getting what exactly I want to search.
Thanks,
Shashidhar
Adding to the previous answer: to accomplish this through the Graph C# SDK, use the Filter() method:
graphClient.Users.Request().Filter("startsWith(displayName, 'k')").GetAsync()
You can use other methods on the request to customize the request, e.g. Select(), etc.
According to your description, I assume you want to search the users by using the search parameters.
Based on this document, we can currently search only message and person collections.
And I have tried the filter query parameter, the parameter is currently not supported the contains operator from this document. So if you want to search the user with name or the email address, we can use the startswith operator only.Like this:
https://graph.microsoft.com/v1.0/users?$filter=startswith(displayName,'k') or startswith(mail,'k')
It will find the user's diplayName or mail which is start with the k
I'm using Google Custom Search with a CustomSearchControl to display search results for a website. I can get the search results localized, and can add a localized no results string without problems. However, I cannot get the search box itself to become localized, i.e. the "Search" button and "XXX results".
The Google documentation CustomSearchControl doesn't mention any way to achieve this. Isn't this possible?
Here is the code I'm using.
google.load('search', '1', {language : 'is', style : google.loader.themes.MINIMALIST});
google.setOnLoadCallback(function() {
var customSearchControl = new google.search.CustomSearchControl('MY_ID');
customSearchControl.setResultSetSize(google.search.Search.FILTERED_CSE_RESULTSET);
customSearchControl.setNoResultsString("Ekkert fannst.");
customSearchControl.draw('cse');
var queryFromUrl = parseQueryFromUrl();
if (queryFromUrl) {
customSearchControl.execute(queryFromUrl);
}
}, true);

I would like to update that currently for custom search element V2 code, you can change the search engine language only from the control panel->Basics->Language section. Whatever language you select it will be the same in all of your multilingual sites. You can't have different languages in different sites. Currently we don't have any parameter such as "language" in the Google Site Search code snippet to customize the language.
In your case you can consider creating different search engine for different languages and change the Language setting in Control Panel --> Setup --> Basics --> Language in all the search engine respectively and share the query quota by adding the search engine in the Business group.
Once you do that all these free search engines will share the query quota of your master GSS search engine.
After that, you can configure each search engine with respective sites/URL pattern only and implement the specific search engines on respective sites.
Please review the document below to know about Language settings

Please review the document below know about business group:

With the CSE Element v2, the search button becomes an icon, so there is no need to localize, if you switch to v2.
I am currently using Lucene. My requirement is like facebook search box. User search people and friends. But in my requirement user have privacy settings like name, location, email address are visible to everyone or only friends. He can show and hide these fields from friends and other members of the community.
I have implemented simple search on the basis of name, location and email address. But now i am modifying search on the basis of privacy settings.
Here is my scenario..
User A has privacy settings:
Name is only shown to friends
Email is shown to every one
Location is not shown to any one.
If User X type location of the User A in the search box then it should not be in the results. But if User X type Name of User A in the search box then it should be shown because User A has not restricted name and it is visible to his friends in the privacy settings.
Can you please guide me to the approach.
Let me know if i have not clearly write my requirement.
I have analysed following approaches,
1- IndexSearcher's explain method (It will be hit overall performance)
2- Explored Filters
But couldn't get much
My Approach:
Get the resultSet on the basis of name
Get the resultSet on the basis of location
Get the resultSet on the basisi of email address
Loop on each 3 result set and apply conditions related to privacy settings and exclude the items on the basis of privacy settings. And in the end merge all 3 results set.
If there is any other approach? Please share with me. Thanks.
may be you can use lucene query syntax in searchable plugin for creating lucene Query according to requirement.
you can find here or here
you can restrict seaching by overriding default property settings. You just need to apply like this....
class A {
String x
String y
String z
static searchable = [only: ['x', 'y']]
// …
}
Using this you can restrict searchable properties.
I am building a website where the user should have the capability of adding their School/University. I have noticed in LinkedIn, when i tried to type in my school name , it showed up a auto search box with all the schools, beginning with the letter i typed. How can i achieve the same functionality?
Do they save all the Universities in their database ? Or is there any Open webservices i can use that will show all the Schools/Universities ?
Thanks !
This feature is called "Auto Complete" and the text boxes are enabled with that. These allow you to filter the data required according to the characters you type in.
Please see this post for auto-complete feature implemented using jQuery.
Razor: Auto-complete text box inside jqGrid, How to bind values?
The example shown in that page lists all from the database. However, as a next phase, you can as well extend this feature to look for a WCF exposed service for universe of schools/colleges.
FYI" "GetSkillNameAutocomplete" is a method in the controller that takes a string parameter as an input (the search string) and gets the value(s).
Hope this helps!
