The best way to use full-text search in django-filters' FilterSet?
My app uses rest-framework and django-filter. I use this FilterSet to provide filtering list of articles (ModelViewSet) by date:
from django_filters import rest_framework as filters
class ArticleFilter(filters.FilterSet):
start_date = filters.DateTimeFilter(field_name='pub_date', lookup_expr='gte')
end_date = filters.DateTimeFilter(field_name='pub_date', lookup_expr='lte')
class Meta:
model = Article
fields = ['pub_date']
I want to add search box to my app, so I need another filter, that will use full-text search at my Article model. Fields I would to search are title and description. I decided to add search field with method parameter like that:
from django_filters import rest_framework as filters
from django.contrib.postgres.search import SearchVector
class ArticleFilter(filters.FilterSet):
start_date = filters.DateTimeFilter(field_name='pub_date', lookup_expr='gte')
end_date = filters.DateTimeFilter(field_name='pub_date', lookup_expr='lte')
search = filters.CharFilter(method='filter_search')
def filter_search(self, queryset, name, value):
return queryset.annotate(search=SearchVector('title', 'description')).filter(search=value)
class Meta:
model = Article
fields = ['pub_date']
It works, but I'm not sure that it's the best way of using full-text search filtering. Am I missing something or this approach is ok?

This is ok for a naive text search where you don't have much text to look into in a small-ish database.
When you get into bigger areas you need to either optimize your db for this or move to a dedicated search engine like Solr or ElasticSearch. Postgres has a section on full text searching, as does mysql.
