Saved Searches

Saved searches are predefined search requestes that are stored in the database. They can be run by providing necessary parameters.

Saved searches are stored as a regular database entity. To setup saved search support:

• Edit the saved search metadata:

  • Change datastore information to specify where the saved searches are stored
  • Default saved search schema allows access for anyone, change that as necessary
  • Change the version of the saved search metadata
  • Set that version as the default version
  • Create the metadata in the database

• Edit lightblue CRUD server configuration:

{
   "savedSearch" : {
      "entity":"savedSearch",
      "entityVersion":"1.0.0",
      "cacheConfig":"maximumSize=1024,softValues"
   },
   "controllers": [
     ...
   ]
}

where:

• entity: Name of the saved search entity, as defined in the saved search metadata
• entityVersion: Version of the saved search entity. If omitted, default version is used
• cacheConfig: Guava cache specification for the saved search cache
