Creates a search operation to find items in a database collection.
The search()
method builds a search operation to find data items in the specified collection based on text search and filter criteria. It returns a WixDataSearch
object that defines the search operation, which you can refine by chaining WixDataSearch
methods onto it. These methods define the search expression and mode, apply filters, and control sorting and pagination of search results.
The methods chained to search()
are applied in the order they are called. For example, if you specify an expression, apply filters, and then sort by a field, the search first finds items that match the expression and filters, and then sorts the results.
Finally, to run the search, chain run()
as the last method.
The search()
method runs with the following WixDataSearch
defaults that you can override:
skip
: 0
limit
: 100
ascending
: by _id
Notes:
ID of the collection in which to run the search.
This method doesn't return any custom errors, but may return standard errors. Learn more about standard Wix errors.
