### Highlight Helper Method
|
|
```php
|
|
public function highlightSearch(string $text, string $search): string
|
|
{
|
|
if (empty($search)) {
|
|
return e($text);
|
|
}
|
|
|
|
$escapedText = e($text);
|
|
$escapedSearch = e($search);
|
|
|
|
return preg_replace(
|
|
'/(' . preg_quote($escapedSearch, '/') . ')/iu',
|
|
'<mark class="bg-gold/30 rounded px-1">$1</mark>',
|
|
$escapedText
|
|
);
|
|
}
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### Translation Strings
|
|
```php
|
|
// resources/lang/en/posts.php
|
|
return [
|
|
'search_placeholder' => 'Search articles...',
|
|
'search_results' => 'Found :count results for ":query"',
|
|
'no_results' => 'No results found for ":query"',
|
|
'clear_search' => 'Clear search',
|
|
];
|
|
|
|
// resources/lang/ar/posts.php
|
|
return [
|
|
'search_placeholder' => 'البحث في المقالات...',
|
|
'search_results' => 'تم العثور على :count نتيجة لـ ":query"',
|
|
'no_results' => 'لم يتم العثور على نتائج لـ ":query"',
|
|
'clear_search' => 'مسح البحث',
|
|
];
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### Testing

|
|
|
|
Volt::test('posts.index')
|
|
->set('search', 'Legal')
|
|
->assertSee('Legal Rights Guide')
|
|
->assertDontSee('Tax Information');
|
|
});
|
|
|
|
it('searches posts by body content', function () {
|
|
Post::factory()->published()->create([
|
|
'title_en' => 'Post 1',
|
|
'body_en' => 'This discusses property law topics.',
|
|
]);
|
|
Post::factory()->published()->create([
|
|
'title_en' => 'Post 2',
|
|
'body_en' => 'This is about family matters.',
|
|
]);
|
|
|
|
Volt::test('posts.index')
|
|
->set('search', 'property')
|
|
->assertSee('Post 1')
|
|
->assertDontSee('Post 2');
|
|
});
|
|
|
|
it('shows no results message', function () {

|
|
### Completion Notes

## QA Results
|
|
|
|
### Review Date: 2025-12-27
|
|
|
|
### Reviewed By: Quinn (Test Architect)
|
|
|
|
### Code Quality Assessment
|
|
|
|
The implementation is solid and follows project conventions well. The search functionality is implemented correctly using Livewire Volt's class-based pattern with proper debouncing, pagination reset, and bilingual support. The `highlightSearch()` method is well-designed with proper XSS protection using `e()` for both input text and search term before applying regex highlighting.
|
|
|
|
**Notable positives:**
|
|
- Clean, readable code following coding standards
|
|
- Proper use of Flux UI components
|
|
- RTL-aware positioning for the clear search button
|
|
- Good separation between display logic (getTitle/getExcerpt) and search logic
|
|
|
|
### Refactoring Performed
|
|
|
|
None required - the implementation is clean and follows best practices.
|
|
|
|
### Compliance Check
|
|
|
|
- Coding Standards: ✓ Uses class-based Volt pattern, Flux UI components, proper testing
|
|
- Project Structure: ✓ Files in correct locations, naming follows conventions
|
|
- Testing Strategy: ✓ 9 comprehensive tests with 22 assertions covering all scenarios
|
|
- All ACs Met: ✓ All acceptance criteria verified with corresponding tests
|
|
|
|
### Improvements Checklist
|
|
|
|
- [x] Search functionality implemented with proper debouncing (300ms)
|
|
- [x] Bilingual search working for both title and body
|
|
- [x] XSS protection in highlight function
|
|
- [x] Case-insensitive search implemented
|
|
- [x] Clear search resets pagination
|
|
- [x] "No results" message displays correctly
|
|
- [x] Only published posts are searched
|
|
- [ ] Optional: Consider JSON path operators (`->`) for more precise JSON column searches in production MySQL (current LIKE on JSON works but is less precise)
|
|
- [ ] Optional enhancement: Search suggestions (marked as optional in story, not implemented)
|
|
|
|
### Security Review
|
|
|
|
✓ **XSS Protection**: The `highlightSearch()` method properly escapes HTML using `e()` before applying regex replacement, preventing XSS attacks.
|
|
✓ **Regex Injection**: `preg_quote()` is used to escape special regex characters in the search term.
|
|
✓ **Authorization**: Search is scoped to `published()` posts only - draft content is not accessible.
|
|
|
|
### Performance Considerations
|
|
|
|
✓ **Debouncing**: 300ms debounce reduces unnecessary server requests
|
|
✓ **Pagination**: 10 items per page limits data transfer
|
|
- Note: LIKE queries on JSON columns may become slow with very large datasets. For a blog with hundreds/thousands of posts, this is acceptable. For larger scale, consider full-text search indexes.
|
|
|
|
### Files Modified During Review
|
|
|
|
None - no refactoring was required.
|
|
|
|
### Gate Status

|
|
|
Gate: PASS → docs/qa/gates/5.5-post-search.yml
|
|
|
|
### Recommended Status
|
|
|
