SWIRL SEARCH 1.1.1

SWIRL SEARCH 1.1.1 Now Available

This release resolves issues found in version 1.1.

Changes

🔹 Added missing date_mixer to search model choice, so it can now be specified

This change requires a change to the model database, so migration is required after updating to the latest version of the repo, and prior to starting SWIRL:

cd swirl-search
git pull
python swirl.py migrate
python swirl.py start

🔹 Reverted recent changes to processor/relevancy.py that reduced term and phrase_boost; they made results worse

Known Issues

🔹 Creating searches from a browser with q= can sometimes create two Search objects.

This appears to be because of browser prefetch. Turn off Chrome prefetch. Turn off Safari prefetch

Please report any issues with this or the rerun function.

🔹 The Django admin form for managing Result objects throws a 500 error. P2.

🔹 Watch out for log files in logs/*.log. They'll need periodic purging. Rollover is planned for a future release.
