IN our GSA, we want to manipulate the keywords sent from the front-end towards the GSA. Is it possible to forward the request to an external app, which will exclude some keywords or enrich the query, and then from there forward to the GSA?
Or maybe is there a way to write some code logic in the Front-End in order to modify the keywords before they are entered as input to the GSA?
Thanks
If you are using a custom portal or application from where you talk to GSA then you can very well get the user query, call an external application, manipulate your query, bring it back to the application, then fire the query to GSA. Once you submit to the frontend, there is no known way to manipulate the query. Custom Query processing does not exsit, afasik but pre-processing, should be possible by many means.
If you are using the default frontend then you sure can call a javascript method from XSLT to change your query and then submit request to GSA

I am building a search component that allows users to filter by type of response. You can see all responses, just the PDFs, or just the webpages. I have the first two parts down, all responses is a basic search and you can filter for pdfs using &fileType=pdf in the query, but i'm not sure how to exclude the pdfs and only return web pages.
I can't find a similar "exclude" param such as -fileType which seems to be supported in other similar APIs. Maybe I just need to format the URL the right way... If anyone has insight into how to accomplish something like this I would appreciate it.
You can try with -inurl:pdf in your URL.
Right now I'm using Custom Search Engine (CSE) to search through entire web by search term. The request looks like:
GET "https:/www.googleapis.com/customsearch/v1?key=API_KEY&cx=SEARCH_ENGINE_ID&q=SEARCH_TERM"
And this request returns me list of search results.
But, I need to implement search by image or image url. Do Google API provide such a url param? Maybe something like "image_url"? So, the request can look the following:
https://www.googleapis.com/customsearch/v1?key=API_KEY&cx=SEARCH_ENGINE_ID&image_url=http://www.example.com/image.png
Basically, I need to implement the same functionality as images.google.com/ but using my Custom Search Engine. Thanks.
Example of what I need to implement:
As far as I know, what you're looking for is only supported by Vision AI service (partially at least, never used it before). Google CSE API only allows you to search images and not by images as you may noticed.
Just setup my CSE with Image Search enabled in the Basics tab, but still ain't getting results.
If I don't use searchType=image in the query it works, if I put it back it stops working with no errors, just no results.
Any inputs?
It seems there are two elements required to consume the Google search API, the configuration of the API key and credentials.
Setup the API key here https://console.developers.google.com/project
and create your own CSE here https://www.google.co.uk/cse/all
I made the mistake like a lot of people of ignoring the CSE side of the setup (it didn't seem logical to search only my own site).
You need to create a CSE though, point it to search any url (I don't think it matters greatly), and then where it says "Sites to search" chose "Search the entire web but emphasise included sites". Also then set image search to "On".
Once you've done this browse to your new CSE, the url should contain your CX code e.g. cx=014341056213260336986:v4fl8n8sabc, you then need to use this in your request query string.
Your API query should now start returning results.
Image search needs to be switched to ON at the Custom Search Setup->Basics
I'm developing a community extension for Magento, when a product search is detected, some JavaScript included with the extension needs to query the Magento API to get a larger number of results than are rendered on page.
I have the API configured, responding, and returning useful data, but I'm struggling to find a way to apply a query to the API call. I've tried adding ?q= or ?keyword= and similar, but it continues to return the same set of data without any filtering applied. Countless passes through Google, Magento StackExchange, and various Magento developer forums haven't made it clear one way or another if this is even possible.
Does the REST API support keyword / phrase searches, or will my extension need to include a block that adds this functionality to the REST API?
Did you take a look at Magento API Filtering .
You could also create you own Custom API or Extending the Core API
I'm just starting to play around with Orchard CMS. I like what I see so far, but I need to be able to create pages that display record details for data stored in another system. Does any one know if that is possible?
I have a SQL Server database that hold real estate property record information. This information gets displayed on the web. On that same website are informational content pages (FAQs, Contact Us, Home, etc...) What I would like to to is leverage the CMS portion of Orchard for the content pages. Then I would like to write a module using the Orchard that would get the real estate info, allow users to search parcels, and display detail pages for each parcel.
If you view the site http://www.sc-pa.com/search you can search by last name "smith" and select one record. That may help illustrate what I need Orchard to do.
Yes, that is possible, but your scenario is way too vague to get into any specifics. Can you elaborate on exactly what you are trying to do: what does the external data look like, where is it stored, how do you want to integrate it into Orchard, do you need any integration with content types and parts, or with search, etc.
One alternative is to expose ur data as web service or odata endpoint and then use jquery to do asynch call to get json data. Then ur home free.
Create a page and put the javascript in that or include a ref to js file.
