README

Introduction

This module is part of the Islandora project and extends the Islandora IIIF component module to support IIIF search results annotations. This provides the back-end support for on-page highlighting of search results within image viewers such as Mirador via the Islandora Mirador module.

Installation

Include with composer require born-digital/islandora_iiif_hocr

Configuring Search Highlighting annotations

Although it is not expressed as a hard requirement, this module assumes tue use of https://github.com/discoverygarden/islandora_hocr, including the installation and configuration of the solr-ocrhighlighting Solr plugin.

Usage

The module provides a Views style plugin to format the results of a Search API Solr response in IIIF annotation format. Thus setting it up requires a search view be created. A sample search view is located in the config/optional folder of this module.

The important parts are:

  • Create a Media view and set the formatter to 'IIIF Search Result Annotations'.
  • In the style plugin settings, choose the Media Use term that is configured in the IIIF Manifest that this search will be attached to. Usually 'Service File' or 'Original File'.
  • Add a search filter for the hOCR, 'Fulltext hOCR search (and )' field. In this filter's settings, thSet the Filter Identifier field to "search_hocr".
  • Set a sort criteria, eitehr Relevance or, to make results appear in page order,, field_weight.
  • Set a path with a'%node' component to be the search endpoint. e.g., paged-content-search/%node. Note this path as it's needed back in the IIIF Manifest view settings.
  • Add a Contextual Filter for 'Content datasource: Member of'. This restricts the search to the book that the search is being done on.
  • Under query settings, set 'the Query Tag field to 'enable_hocr'. This is important as it tells this module to add hOCR-specific parameters to the search query.
  • Add another display for Single Item search, and leave off the contextual filter, so only the single node is searched.

After saving the view, it can be tested by going directly to the path endpoint with a search parameter added, e.g., paged-content-search/%[some-book-nid]]?search_query_param="My search"

To make Mirador be able to do searches, go back to the views settings for the IIIF Manifest, and edit the IIIF Manifest style plugin settings.

There is now a field for setting the search endpoint that Mirador (or another viewer that supports IIIF Search) should use.1 Put in the path you set above, including %node, and save.*
