Search

Catalyst Search enables data searching in the indexed columns of the tables in the Data Store . It allows you to perform powerful searches through volumes of data with a single search query.

Search Data in Tables

The search() method is used for searching data in the tables in a specific pattern. Before you execute a search operation, you must construct the search pattern to pass to the search() method, as shown in the code syntax below.

    

        
copy
        

            

        
    
    

         ZCatalystApp.getInstance().search(
    searchOptions: ZCatalystSearchOptions,
    success: (Map<String, List<Map<String, Any?>>>) → Unit,
    failure: ((ZCatalystException) → Unit)?
): ZCatalystRequest<ZCatalystResponse<Map<String, List<Map<String, Any?>>>>>?

    

Parameters:

• searchOptions: The instance of the ZCatalystSearchOptions class to be passed to the search() method

You can create the instance for searchOptions() in the following way:

    

        
copy
        

            

        
    
    

         ZCatalystSearchOptions(searchText: String, ArrayList<ZCatalystSearchOptions.TableColumns)
   .addSortColumn(tableName: String,columnName: String): Unit
   .setDisplayColumns(displayTableColumns: ArrayList<ZCatalystSearchOptions.TableColumns>): Unit
   .setSearchColumns(searchTableColumns: ArrayList<ZCatalystSearchOptions.TableColumns>): Unit
   .setSearchPattern(pattern: ZCatalystSearchOptions.SearchPattern): Unit

    

A sample code snippet of a search execution is shown below:

    

        
copy
        

            

        
    
    

         val tableColumns = ZCatalystSearchOptions.TableColumns("EmployeeDetails") //Replace this with your table name
    tableColumns.addColumn("Age") //Replace this with your column name

    val arr = arrayListOf()
    arr.add(tableColumns)

    val searchOptions = ZCatalystSearchOptions("26",arr) //Replace this with your search text

    ZCatalystApp.getInstance().search(searchOptions,
        {
            println(">> success - $it")
        },
        {
            println(">> failed - $it")
        })
