Add dataset search built on select2

Needs uwescience/myria#507

[dhalperi]

Problem with padding on right side when expanded?

[dhalperi]

I feel like there's something fishy with the UI. I think I'd prefer not to dropdown, but have the top line disappear when you type. More like github, I guess.

[dhalperi]

maybe add : in myria? I can imagine a user wanting this to work:

Also maybe strip spaces and other things that don't match the regex from the search term?

[domoritz]

Hehe, now that I can try it with the real cluster ;-)

Should this be added in the backend or just remove any separator character from the search string?

Also probably strip spaces from the search term?

Agreed

I'm not sure how that would be better. However, highlighting the match should be added.

I guess I thought users might want to use the : to restrict searches once they have the user or program attribute well enough, which is why I suggested modifying myria.

e.g., on github you can use .sql and that will restrict your search (assuming directories don't have a . in them) to files with s q l in their extension. etc.

I was thinking that maybe the search box should replace the first row, rather than become the second row. If I hit esc then go back to whatever was in the first row before.

(the github metaphor doesn't really hold up, though. I can't find a filter-like part of their code that actually lets you select other than the file finder, and it's not really a good match).

[dhalperi]

deployed : fix.

[dhalperi]

also two more things.

1. I think I kinda screwed the pooch last night on moving submodules into submodules directory on myria-web master. It all seemed to work just fine for me but now checking out different branches seems to really mess some state up. Sorry!

2. I'm probably offline most of the rest of the day. :)

Now you can query :adhoc: for example to filter by program name.

me too ;-)

[domoritz]

Alright, I implemented highlighting the matching string parts.

[dhalperi]

Oh, that's what you meant by "highlighting the match". I like it!

I wish you could annotate images you upload to github with your mouse. I could like circle things, etc. :)

about to 🚢 it
