I took some time to work out the exact #formatting that #Elasticsearch demands. If you think this might be useful, go ahead and boost. If you find any errors or would like to suggest additions, please also post a reply!

Hopefully this can help prevent a lot of frustration and trouble people might encounter and give them a better Mastodon experience!

Mastodon Elasticsearch - Essential Search Formatting

From:@joeybohij@spallone.somedomain
Capitalizing the "F" returns posts you made that include @joeybohij (Search doesn't run correctly?)

from:_@joeybohij@spallone.somedomain
Putting a space between the colon and @ returns posts you made that include @joeybohij (Search doesn't run correctly?)

from:@joeybohij@spallone.somedomain
This returns posts from @joeybohij - assuming their posts are searchable
from:@joeybohij@spallone.somedomain apple
This returns posts from @joeybohij - assuming their posts are searchable, containing the word "apple"

from:@joeybohij@spallone.somedomain before:2023-09-01 apple
Elasticsearch uses the following date formatting:
YYYY-MM-DD
This returns posts from @joeybohij - assuming their posts are searchable, containing the word "apple"
", before September 1st, 2023

from:@joeybohij@spallone.somedomain apple before:2023-09-01
This returns posts from anyone before September 1st, 2023, with "apple" in it.

TL;DR in Elasticsearch CAPITALIZATION is significant, SPACING is significant, DATE FORMAT is significant, and ORDER of search elements is significant! (And make sure to hit the blue "see all" once you've searched or only some results will load.)

#SepiaSearch is your companion for finding #PeerTube videos, playlists and channels from the PeerTube federation

We're currently testing #Meilisearch in favour of #ElasticSearch to index the data.

As it's difficult to know if the results are relevant in all languages, we're looking for public feedback!

So don't hesitate to test this new engine on https://meilisearch.sepiasearch.org/ and let us know what you think 😀
