New features and improvements
You can add the optionalsearch-wildcard attribute to the search-facet directive to specify whether Appkit performs a wildcard search within facet names and, if it does, how it attaches the wildcard character(s) to the terms that users enter.
A wildcard character matches zero or more characters where it is placed. For example, computer* would match the facets computers and computer accessories. This wildcard is often represented as an asterisk (*).
The search-wildcard attribute can have these values:
| Value | Description |
|---|---|
left | Adds a wildcard prefix to facet search terms, for example, term (entered) becomes *term (used to search). |
right | Adds a wildcard suffix to facet search terms, for example, term (entered) becomes term* (used to search). |
both (default) | Adds both a wildcard prefix and suffix to facet search terms, for example, term (entered) becomes *term* (used to search). |
none | Adds no wildcard to facet search terms (exact match). |
