   −
Instead of having complicated query format for org.laptop.sugar.DataStore::find(), use plane string [http://www.xapian.org/docs/queryparser.html full featured] query format i.e. use all system query parameters(like timestamp, mime_type etc.) with user query string(from former find()'s 'query' argument).
+
Let users create complex queries with all possible terms (see Xapian [http://xapian.org/docs/glossary.html glossary]) including system ones. Users can use in query string [[#System prefixes|system]] prefixes and predefined set of [[#Users predefined prefixes|custom]] prefixes.
 +
 
 +
Prefixes in query string could look like
 +
<prefix>:<one-word-value>
 +
<prefix>:"<multi-word-value>"
 +
 
 +
Values for system prefixes, Sugar fills on its own, i.e., if ''title'' metadata field is ''My activity'', user can type ''title:"My activity"'' in query string to search ''My activity'' substring only within ''title'' fields.
 +
 
 +
Values for [[#Users predefined prefixes|custom]] prefixes user should place to ''tags'' metadata field in the same form like in query string.
 +
 
 +
If value is multi-worded, any of these words could be used in query, e.g., ''title:My'' or ''title:activity''.
 +

== Benefit to Sugar ==
 
== Benefit to Sugar ==
   −
* simple(plane string in comparing with existed API with dictionary find()'s argument) query format for dbus find() method
+
* Feature lets users specify exact metadata fields to search for.
−
* simple and new-feature-proof way to implement find method for example in CLI tools(because this tool needs only to pass plane string to Datastore service)
  −
* let experienced users make complicated search in Journal etc.
  −
* existed implementation has hard-coded logic for example in case of having several mime_types in query(all mime_types will be ORed despite what user wants).

−
''If this feature is noticeable by its target audience, how will their experiences change as a result?  Describe what they will see or notice.''
+

* feature just expands query dictionary
    
== Dependencies ==
 
== Dependencies ==
−
''What other packages (RPMs) depend on this package?  Are there changes outside the developers' control on which completion of this feature depends?  In other words, completion of another feature owned by someone else and might cause you to not be able to finish on time or that you would need to coordinate?  Other upstream projects like python?''
+
 
 +
Just regular glucose dependencies.
