So, this is fun. Apparently "DeckId" is considered preferable to the
"DeckID" were were using until now, and the latest clippy will start
warning about it. We could of course disable the warning, but probably
better to bite the bullet and switch to the naming that's generally
considered best.
While implementing the overdue search, I realised it would be nice to
be able to construct a search string with OR and NOT searches without
having to construct each part individually with build_search_string().
Changes:
- Extends SearchTerm to support a text search, which will be parsed
by the backend. This allows us to do things like wrap text in a group
or NOT node.
- Because SearchTerm->Node conversion can now fail with a parsing error,
it's switched over to TryFrom
- Switch concatenate_searches and replace_search_term to use SearchTerms,
so that they too don't require separate string building steps.
- Remove the unused normalize_search()
- Remove negate_search, as this is now an operation on a Node, and
users can wrap their search in SearchTerm(negated=...)
- Remove the match_any and negate args from build_search_string
Having done all this work, I've just realised that perhaps the original
JSON idea was more feasible than I first thought - if we wrote it out
to a string and re-parsed it, we would be able to leverage the existing
checks that occur at parsing stage.
I was a bit too enthusiastic with using borrowed values in structs
earlier on in the Rust porting. In this case any performance gains are
dwarfed by the cost of querying the DB, and using owned values here
simplifies the code, and will make it easier to parse a fragment in
the From<SearchTerm> impl.
The majority of the error checking can now be delegated to routines
like parse_f32(), parse_negative_i32() and so on, instead of creating
specific error messages for each type.
- use markdown instead of HTML, to make editing and translating easier
- use a shared prefix
- a few very minor wording tweaks
- we don't need to translate undocumented command errors
- share a string for positive number of days
- share a string for invalid property and state arguments, and avoid
listing them out
