Navigation & Search Enhancement Release Note
Overview:
This release optimizes the platform’s navigation and search functionality by refining filtering, enhancing search behavior, and improving overall performance. The updates ensure that end users experience swift, relevant searches tailored to hospitality entries only.
Key Enhancements:
Filtering Improvements
- Enhanced Data Filtering:
Updates to the API call and data transformation processes now filter out non-hospitality entries before rendering. - Client-Side Filtering:
If filtering is processed on the client, the filter() method within the service layer has been modified to ensure only relevant properties appear.
- Enhanced Data Filtering:
Improved Search Behavior
- Partial Match & Highlighting:
The search component now supports fuzzy search—leveraging Angular’s built-in pipes or Fuse.js—so that partial matches are accurately found and highlighted. - Performance Boost with RxJS:
Implementation of RxJS debounce limits excessive API calls, resulting in more efficient and responsive search performance.
- Partial Match & Highlighting:
Enhanced Usability & Reduced Scrolling
- Result Limitation:
Search results are now capped at 10–15 entries per search to streamline the user experience and minimize scrolling. - "Show More" Option:
A "Show More" button has been added when search results exceed the limit, ensuring users can access additional entries when needed.
- Result Limitation:
Code Updates
- Search Logic Update:
Modifications to the search logic in search.component.ts incorporate all the above enhancements, ensuring seamless integration with the IN-Gauge platform.

Benefits:
- Increased Relevance:
Users receive search results that strictly pertain to hospitality, reducing noise and irrelevant entries. - Improved Performance:
The RxJS debounce implementation and refined API calls lead to faster, more efficient data processing and rendering. - Enhanced User Experience:
Limiting results and providing a “Show More” option minimizes scrolling while making it easier for users to find what they need. Partial match highlighting further assists in quickly identifying the desired property. - Cleaner and More Maintainable Code:
These updates simplify future development and troubleshooting by improving code clarity and functionality within search.component.ts.
