Advanced query using REST interface

0
Sourajit Basak (11●1●1) | asked Nov 16 '10, 4:46 a.m.
I am trying to execute an advanced query that searches within the contents of assets. Here is the repository location
https://<host>/tools/cm/iram/ram.ws

The query fired is a GET with header Accept=application/atom+xml

https://<host>/tools/cm/iram/ram.ws?oslc_asset.query=oslc_asset:searchTerms="ibm dojotoolkit".

However, this doesn't return the desired results. I guess I missed something.

How are you trying to execute it? You may need to URL encode the query parameter

try... 

https://<host>/tools/cm/iram/ram.ws?oslc_asset.query=oslc_asset%3AsearchTerms%3D%22ibm%20dojotoolkit%22


If not what results do you get back?

The URL was encoded, I pasted without escaping for readability.

Whatever query I fire I always get back a html that contains a link to the RAM WSDL.

So I just realized you are executing against the root of the server. You need to execute against the query context...

https://w3-03.ibm.com/tools/cm/iram/ram.ws/oslc/simpleQuery?oslc_asset.query=oslc_asset:searchTerms%3D"dojotoolkit"

Note this seems to give me what I get if I search for "dojotoolkit" in the search box. We also support the search short cut you can get off the RAM search page for example....

https://w3-03.ibm.com/tools/cm/iram/ram.ws/oslc/simpleQuery?oslc_asset.query=ramSearch:(1txt%2Cibm+dojotoolkit)

which allows for the fuzzy search you may be looking for.

Thanks it worked.

Is this context root standard or configurable ?
Where can I get more information about fuzzy search ?

The paths are not configurable. See the getting start section on a breakdown of how to discover the resource paths...

https://jazz.net/wiki/bin/view/Main/RamRestApiMain#Getting_started

To find the fuzzy search shortcut you can find on the UI search page. Once you perform search in RAM there is a clipboard icon (View Search Shortcut) on the top right of the search results. Once you click this a text box appear with the search shortcut you can use in the REST call.
