Requirements for Class based Filter API
- Author: Daryn Warriner (daryn)
- Status: Draft
- Associated Issue:
Introduction
The codebase for filter api is overly complicated and confusing both from a users perspective and a developers perspective. A class based filter api would:
- Simplify the codebase
- Increase maintainability
- Enable greater filter customization
- Allow a simpler user interface
Implementation Notes
The default simple filter would be a Google-like single textbox.
* It __may__ include a select list of fields to search.
* The current search field searches the summary, description, steps to reproduce, additional information, issue bugnotes, bug id, and bugnote id fields.
* The new search may include those fields as well as text based custom fields, tags, and in the future, expand to other fields.
