Collections Page - Search within a collection

[jmakowski1123]

• Users can conduct free-text keyword searches within a collection.
• Result sets are limited to content that lives in the collection.
• Results are displayed with most relevant by default.
• Users can refine search results by tag or by content type.
• Users can sort search results - will be a separate story, Sort Collection Components - Collections Page #1166 but can be implemented together.

@jmakowski1123 @bradenmacdonald Sorting Components within a Collection is handled by a separate ticket, so should be excluded from the requirements here: #1166

@jmakowski1123 @lizc577 @sdaitzman @marcotuts This is ready for AC testing on the sandbox

@sdaitzman I asked the same thing on Slack. I think it's blocked on #1310 . In the meantime you can go to this URL: https://app.tagging-preview.staging.do.opencraft.hosting/course-authoring/library/lib:OpenCraft:TL/collection/studio-advanced/ it has tags and stuff too.

Thanks @bradenmacdonald!

@sdaitzman Do you think it's clear enough to users that once tags have been selected in the filter, they just click anywhere outside of the window to close it?

[jmakowski1123]

Overall this is great. I love the highlighting feature and how it's responsive to where the word match is in the description, even if the description doesn't fit in the tile preview.

What are the boundaries of the text search? Is it title, description, metadata?

@jmakowski1123 I think it will be clear enough, since other tools work fairly similarly. If we wanted to make things more explicit, we could add an "Apply Filters" button, but I think it's a common pattern to click outside a dropdown like this to close it.

Keyword search is done across the component display name, block ID, block content, description, tag titles, and collection titles (in that order of priority, same for library components). And any of that is easy to change if needed.
