# Islandora Saved Searches

## Introduction

Adds the ability to save searches on the Islandora SOLR index provided by the

Islandora SOLR module.  

## Requirements

- [Islandora](https://github.com/islandora/islandora)

- [Islandora SOLR Search](https://github.com/Islandora/islandora_solr_search)

## Installation

Enable the module and place the "Islandora save search" block in any region on

the active theme.  This block will only appear on results screens and allows

users to save searches which will then appear at 

`user/[uid]/islandora-saved-searches`.

## Configuration

There are two permissions associated with this, the "save islandora searches" 

permission allows users to see the "Islandora save search" block, view their 

saved searches in the "Islandora current users saved searches" block and access

their saved searches at `user/[uid]/islandora-saved-searches`.  The "administer 

islandora saved searches" permission allows access to any users saved searches.

## Alternatives

The [cwrc_workflow](https://github.com/discoverygarden/cwrc_workflow) module

provides a reports interface that has somewhat similar capabilities, in that it

can create canned reports that are essentially saved searches, however, the

interface for this is a little intimidating and not end-user friendly.  This

module is designed to be simple and end-user friendly.

The drupal [sarnia](https://www.drupal.org/project/sarnia) and

[search_api](https://www.drupal.org/project/search_api) modules provide a

powerful alternative to the core islandora solr module, which can then be 

combined with [search_api_saved_searches](https://www.drupal.org/project/search_api_saved_searches)

for a saved search solution, however, this would require not using the islandora

solr modules at all.
