I just submitted a patch for a bare-bones search. This patch allows for
searching within your current edna directory and sub-directories. Playlists
requested from search results pages contain only the media displayed on the
search results page.
As the search takes at least as long as a recursive playlist request,
searching is disabled by default in edna.conf.
I purposely left the search function ( EndaRequestHandler.do_search() ) as
a one-line case-insensitive check for the search string within the sub-path for
each media file.
I intend to extend this myself (for example with boolean logic), but I felt
that there is likely a number of people who would be interested in a bare
search patch to extend with their own search functions.
Searching ID3 tags in particular I believe will be too slow if they must be
re-read for every search but one of the strengths of edna is that it reads the
current filesystem contents.
I also made a trivial patch to add a chosen favicon.ico and will submit
that shortly.
