feat(search): field-qualified queries (kind:/lang:/path:/name:) + fuzzy typo fallback (#131)
* feat(search): field-qualified queries (kind:/lang:/path:/name:) + fuzzy typo fallback
Two UX improvements that turn a free-text search into something a
real user can drive precisely.
1) Field-qualified queries.
A new query parser (src/search/query-parser.ts) splits the raw query
into structured filters and a free-text remainder:
kind:function name:auth path:src/api authenticate
becomes
{ kinds: ['function'], nameFilters: ['auth'],
pathFilters: ['src/api'], text: 'authenticate' }
Filters compose with the SearchOptions arg (intersection). Unknown
prefixes pass through as plain text so `query "TODO:"` keeps working.
Quoted values (`path:"my dir"`) handle whitespace. When the user
specifies only filters with no text, the search uses a filter-only
candidate scan instead of bailing out.
Recognised today:
kind: any NodeKind value
lang: any Language value (alias: language:)
path: case-insensitive substring of file_path
name: case-insensitive substring of node.name
2) Fuzzy fallback.
When BOTH FTS and LIKE return nothing AND the text is at least 3
chars, the resolver scans the distinct-name set with a bounded
Damerau-Levenshtein-style edit distance (≤2 for ≥5 chars, ≤1 for
4-char queries, off for shorter). Bounded edit-distance early-exits
once the row min exceeds maxDist, so this stays O(distinct-names *
avg-name-length) with a very low constant.
Verified live against ollama/ollama@v0.22.0:
query "kind:function auth" → only function-kind hits
query "lang:go path:server route" → Go files under server/
query "getUssr" (typo) → finds getUser, SetUser
query "confg" (typo) → finds Config
Full test suite: 380 passed.
* fix(search): address reviewer findings — tokenizer mid-token quotes, fuzzy fan-out cap, larger filter-only over-fetch, unit tests
Five fixes from independent review:
- parseQuery tokenizer: quotes that appear MID-token (path:"my dir/
file") were not being recognised — only quotes at the start of a
token were treated as quoted spans. The fixture path:"my dir"
parsed as ['path:"my', 'dir"'] instead of ['path:"my dir"'].
Tokeniser is now a single state machine that scans into a token
until whitespace OR a quote, and recognises quotes anywhere within
the token (skips to the matching close quote).
- searchNodesFuzzy: cap the per-name follow-up SQL queries at
Math.max(limit*2, 50) AFTER edit-distance filtering. Without
this, a project with many similar names (getUser1, getUser2...)
could fan out far beyond limit queries before the inner-loop
break kicks in.
- searchAllByFilters (filter-only no-text path): bumped over-fetch
multiplier from 2× to 5× so a selective post-filter (e.g.
path:src/very/specific/file.ts) doesn't return fewer than limit
results despite the DB having matches.
- 23 new unit tests in __tests__/search-query-parser.test.ts:
parseQuery covers known-field filter, lang/language alias,
multiple kind: ORs, quoted spans (incl. mid-token), URL
passthrough, empty-value passthrough, unknown prefix passthrough,
unknown value passthrough, all-filters-no-text, empty input,
20k-char input. boundedEditDistance covers identity, single
insertion/deletion/substitution, length-difference shortcut,
empty inputs, case-sensitivity, early-exit correctness.
Full test suite: 853 passed (up from 830).
* refactor(search): derive parser kind/lang sets from types.ts as const
Convert NodeKind and Language to runtime-iterable as const arrays
(NODE_KINDS, LANGUAGES) so the query parser imports the canonical
list instead of duplicating it. Also fix the path: JSDoc to say
substring (matches the .includes() impl).
