DOGE Fulltext Search

Help: DOGE Fulltext Search

You can do a full-text search on all DOGE reports, which will appear in date order. You can then filter your search results using facets.

  1. Enter a string (say “Big Balls”) in the search box below.
  2. Press the green “Search” button.
  3. A results table appears. The columns are:
  4. Original Date. The date the original resource linked to in the report was published
  5. Post Date. The date the report was published.
  6. Snippet: Highlights “hits” in yellow (for example, “Big Balls”).
  7. Post: Clicking the title takes you to the blog post where the hit occurs (“hit post”).
  8. People, Government, and Firms: Three classes of taxonomy terms applied to the hit post. For example, “Edward Coristine*,” the “Department of Homeland Security,” and “Tesla.Sexy LLC” respectively. Clicking on the term takes you to the term page, which shows all the posts where the term appears.

You may now refine your search on “data” using “facets” (below the results table).

NOTE

This timeline is similar to general full-text search on the site. However, hits are restricted to instances of the Report content type and are sorted by time.

Enter text to search and press "Search". (Performance should be snappier when I port to SOLR.)
Search results appear in a table below, but not until you make a search.

No results. Please try with different search text.

Fulltext Search Result Filters

Help: Fulltext Search Result Facet Filters

Suppose you want to limit the results from your fulltext search on “data” (above) to post hits sourced to Wired magazine. To do so:

  1. See the Reporting: Byline, Venue heading.
  2. There are two “facets”: Byline, and Venue. Each has a search box and the first three facet items as a sample of data to expect. Each facet item has a checkbox ☐.
  3. In the Venue search box, start by typing “W.” A dropdown of venues including “W” will appear, among them “Wired.” You can also click the triangle to see all facet items, and scroll to “Wired.” The number in parenthesis following each item gives the number of times it appears in the search result.
  4. Check ☑ “Wired.”
  5. The page refreshes, and now results show only “data” post hits tagged with “Wired” as the venue. You can confirm this by hovering over links in the ID column after the page refresh; you will see that the URL always addresses Wired.
  6. The Filters Checked (Summary) section updates, showing your selection.

Facets progressively narrow a search. After you selected “Wired” as a venue, you will have noticed that some sections have no facets beneath them; they have been ruled out by limiting the search result to the venue “Wired.” Other sections still have facets, and you can narrow the search further by clicking them.

If you want to filter your search further, explore facets. The Jackpot provides a rich data model!

Facet headings (“Blogging”) have facets with checkboxes (☐ “lambert”). Narrow your search results by ☑-ing facets . For any given search, not all headings have facets.
