[EP-tech] Re: OR-linked search filters?

Perhaps you could populate a field that does the heavy computation and filter on that field?

I guess the eprints db layer can only provide so much for filtering purposes :-/ real-time set aggregation via a sub is expensive for large datasets. Also the set state cannot "really" be saved from one request to another (eg for pagination in oai-pmh).

Anyways can't really think of a nice way to achieve this with eprints, sorry.

Thank you Seb. Wondering why it worked that way for this long. :-)

Unfortunately, filters work non-hierarchically. Whatever "match" or
"merge" may be set to, it relates to one field or couple of fields as
listed in @$meta_fields independently from other filters. What I need is
rather a general OAI filter working like that:

return $record if (
     first({ $_ eq $type } @SAFE_TYPE) # those types below
  || ( $type=~/^HD/ && first { $_ eq "340" } @subject )
);

I would humbly suggest to allow a sub-ref to filter setting if there is
not another way yet. Sure this cannot be optimized on database level,
but it is more flexible when needed.
