Search

Post by rwoodruf » Fri Dec 02, 2005 3:27 pm

How does one search an entire tree or node in the vault client? I don't see an option on the toolbar and ctrl-F doesn't work. I am using Vault 3.1.5 client and server.

Thanks.

On the bottom pane in the GUI client, there is a Search tab. It allows you to search for file names and status, but not yet file contents.

Is there any sample code to setup a web page to search content of the Repository?

We store files in a compressed, binary format, so there isn't a simple (or even a very hard) way to do it yourself using Vault APIs. When we add that feature, we will need store searchable words differently, and provide new webservice calls.

The only thing you could do right now is setup something like shadow folders, and then create your own webservice to search the folders and return results.
