678096 - Add filter by branches and plugin name/filename in search with ElasticSearch

Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 867120

(Socorro Graveyard :: Middleware, defect, P3)

Description

[[DEACTIVATED] Adrian Gaudebert]

There is a regression in the search using ElasticSearch: filtering by branches or by plugin name/filename is not implemented. Need to be fixed, need to check if data is missing in ES to be able to do it.

I think branches are going away completely, so don't waste too much time on them. Plugin name/filename is important, though.

Good to know, thank you Kairo!

this will make it more difficult to research crashes by "collections" (eg branches) 

having to explicitly specify each version I want, like all 5.0* is a pain. And, I might not even know what all versions are for a given release.

Nobody is willing to maintain the code, and I rarely hear of anyone even investigating things that way. Also, with the new automatic version gathering, it's harder to do even gather this "branch" (actually platform version) data.

I can appreciate that reality.  Is it possible, instead, to allow wildcard on the version field, eg 7.0*  ... or some approximation?

I think that the future search mechanism based on Elastic Search should be able to help there.
