[Archivesspace_Users_Group] Rendering identifiers in search results?

[Majewski, Steven (sdm7g)]

You may have misunderstood: I didn’t state AppConfig currently controls that display.  I was proposing that as a possible change to make “&display_identifier=true” the default view. ( Although for consistency, I somewhat prefer doing it via preference settings, if possible. )

Trying those modifications to the config.rb and the search_controller.rb files in my 2.1.2 VM test environment yielded no results, although the lyrasis plugin worked like a charm. I just added a core enhancement request to Jira since it does seem like something that should already exist.
Thanks for your help everyone.

It appears that you can also append “&display_identifier=true”  to the search results URL and hit return.

But there doesn’t appear to be a way to set this in defaults or config:

https://github.com/archivesspace/archivesspace/blob/master/frontend/app/controllers/search_controller.rb#L66

@display_identifier
=
params[:display_identifier]
?
params[:display_identifier]
: false


Perhaps those lines should be changes to use an AppConfig[] value ?  ( :frontend_search_display_identifier ? )
Although I would be as happy to have the default be true. ( Does anybody NOT want to see ids ?   )


Since extra columns for the browse pages for Accession, Resource and Digital Object are set in user preferences, it would probably be more consistent to control it with a preference setting instead of an AppConfig setting ( but that would probably be a bit more work ).


BTW: Some of those functions controlling the search listing view are in the search_helper code:https://github.com/archivesspace/archivesspace/blob/master/frontend/app/helpers/search_helper.rb

Brian,

Assuming it is the staff interface you are referring to, there is a plugin available that will add identifiers to search results.

See https://github.com/lyrasis/aspace-search-identifier. Seems to work fine on our TEST instance, which runs 2.2, I believe.

Best,

Mike

Does anybody have advice/examples of how to get identifiers to show up in search results?

What I have so far is that there does not seem to be a graphical way to do this; so looking into the structure of 2.2 on github to potentially modify and add to my local plugin I found the file “frontend/app/views/search/_listing.html.erb”. This seems to be the file that facilitates rendering search results(?). It has a line in it that says <% add_identifier_column ifshow_identifier_column? %>. There is no other reference to rendering an identifier. Ideas?
