1007831 - add link to query syntax help

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(Input Graveyard :: Dashboard, defect)

Description

[Will Kahn-Greene [:willkg] ET needinfo? me]

The front page dashboard and analyzer search both use a query syntax for searching. This syntax is not documented anywhere, but it really should be.

This bug covers adding a link near the search box for both the frontpage dashboard and the analyzer search page that goes to a wiki page that details the query syntax with examples.

Bug #986589 covers switching to Elasticsearch simple-query-string queries, so we should document the Elasticsearch 0.90 version of that syntax.

In a PR: https://github.com/mozilla/fjord/pull/278

Landed in master: https://github.com/mozilla/fjord/commit/e399a87

I wrote up the search query text in the wiki, too: https://wiki.mozilla.org/Firefox/Input#Search_syntax

It's Friday, so I'll push this out on Monday.
