Search API limited to 10 results

[stefanmedack]

Hey there,

thanks for providing the search API publicly, I was really looking forward to it. Sadly, it only provides a maximum of 10 items at the moment and is not pageable.
Is it possible to provide more search results or have the result set delivered in multiple pages?

Hi, the API uses rails api-pagination and should support it. Have you looked into the headers or tried the page parameter?

See https://github.com/davidcelis/api-pagination/blob/master/README.md

If it does not work, please tell us of course.

Hm I think we have a bug there, pagination is never used because we only get 10 results...

curl -v -H "CONTENT-TYPE: application/json" 'https://media.ccc.de/public/events/search?q=fnord?page=2' | jq '.events[] | .slug'

It seems to work for the HTML search forms, but how do we set up elasticsearch, kaminari to work with api-pagination?
Should we pass something like size=unlimited to the ES query and have api-pagination take care of the result? Is there a way to pass the same query (page, size) to both ES and pagination, to get only the required data?
