Description

For now the search scope in search controller can't be extended by plugins.

See ln51 in search_controller.rb

@object_types = %w(issues news documents changesets wiki_pages messages projects)

So if there is a plugin_hook which let plugin add object_types to above, the plugin can easily integrated their search function into redmine's search page.

That's not a job for a hook, but yes, this should be extendable...

As of version 1.0.0.stable I have managed to incorporate search to a plugin with the following changes:

  1. Provide search scope in the controller. For example for EzPlugin I had to write
    class EzfaqController < ApplicationController
    [...]
      default_search_scope :faqs
    [...]
    
  2. Provide ability to search in the model (In EzPlugin it's already in the plugin)
    class Faq < ActiveRecord::Base
    [...]
      acts_as_searchable :columns => ["#{table_name}.question", "#{table_name}.answer"],
                            :include => [:project]
    [...]
    
  3. Register the plugin in Redmine search (libs/redmine.rb)
    Redmine::Search.map do |search|
    [...]
      search.register :faqs
    [...]
