This method is used to return the results of a filter in a standard ARK results array. It can return the results of a saved filter or can be used to run a simple freetext search.
Contents
Path
http://your.ark.instance/api.php?req=getFilter
Arguments
- ftype - The filtertype. Currently only a free text search can be undertaken using the API. If you want to run a free text search ftype needs to be set to 'ftx'. You will also need to send a src.
- src - This is the free text phrase to search on. Normal Boolean Search (i.e. Google) parameters apply.
If you want to retrieve a previously saved filter (saved using the ARK web interface) use:
- retftrset - this needs to be set to the numeric id of a saved filter. Current saved filters can be queried using the API method describeFilters().
If anonymous logins are not enabled a username and password will need to be supplied:
- handle - username
- passwd - password
The method returns a JSON array unless otherwise specified:
- format - 'json' by default, but sending 'html' prints a human-readable array to screen
Example
Example 1 - getting a saved filter
http://your.ark.instance/api.php?req=getFilter&retftrset=3&handle=johndoe&passwd=johndoepassword
Example return (returned JSONified - displayed as an array here for ease of viewing):
Array ( [hut_cdLK12_28] => Array ( [itemkey] => hut_cd [itemval] => LK12_28 [score] => 151 [snippets] => Array ( [0] => Array ( [type] => Notes [snip] => A shaman's house? The counterpart to house 3? [class] => txt ) ) ) [hut_cdLK12_3] => Array ( [itemkey] => hut_cd [itemval] => LK12_3 [score] => 151 [snippets] => Array ( [0] => Array ( [type] => Notes [snip] => The 'Shaman's House'. One of the most northerly and the only house with a view of Rough Tor directly through it's doorway. It is associated with a field-shrine/mini-tor to the south and has a small 'hidden' enclosure to the back of the house. SW says that it is hidden from all of the houses - although the viewshed analysis suggests otherwise... [class] => txt ) ) ) )
Example 2 - running a free text search
Example return (returned JSONified - displayed as an array here for ease of viewing):
Array ( [hut_cdLK12_3] => Array ( [itemkey] => hut_cd [itemval] => LK12_3 [score] => 151 [snippets] => Array ( [0] => Array ( [type] => Notes [snip] => The 'Shaman's House'. One of the most northerly and the only house with a view of Rough Tor directly through it's doorway.
