keyword AND in $source

[taraAthan]

I would like to search for two or more keywords with an AND option instead of OR. That is: match all of these keywords.  I was wondering if anyone has modified the cpmfetch code to do this (before I attempt to do it myself).

Thanks, Tara

Okay, I made the modifications to add an option to "match all of these keywords".  It wasn't too hard, as the code in cpmfetch is well-written and easy to follow   . The only file that had to be modified was cpmfetch_dao.php - the modified file is attached as a zip.

My solution is perhaps not very elegant- I just added a new option to the $source parameter called keywordand. It works basically the same way as keyword, but puts ANDS in between instead of OR. You can still have the OR style keyword search as well, so it is possible to construct a complex keyword query that looks like this

keywords like  a OR b OR (x AND y AND z)

although I'm not sure why you would want to do that

In case you are interested, I am using this for a faceted search, where I have keywords such as
event.Ludwigia_field_tour and ecotype.riparian_woodland.  The part before the . is the name of the facet.
