Ignore local parameter for non localized content types

[Cyrille Perois]

I would like to search in two content types: one is localized, but not the other. I have the following configuration:

  "fuzzy-search": {
    enabled: true,
    config: {
      contentTypes: [
        {
          uid: "api::molecule.molecule",
          modelName: "molecule",
          fuzzysortOptions: {
            characterLimit: 500,
            threshold: -1000,
            limit: 15,
            keys: [
              {
                name: "casNumber",
                weight: 100,
              },
              {
                name: "name",
                weight: 100,
              },
            ],
          },
        },
        {
          uid: "api::page.page",
          modelName: "page",
          fuzzysortOptions: {
            characterLimit: 500,
            threshold: -1000,
            limit: 15,
            keys: [
              {
                name: "title",
                weight: 100,
              },
            ],
          },
        },
      ],
    },
  },

molecule is not localized, but page is localized. When I send a request to http://localhost:1337/api/fuzzy-search/search?query=test&locale=fr, I get the following response:

{
  "data": null,
  "error": {
    "status": 400,
    "name": "ValidationError",
    "message": "A query for the locale: 'fr' was found, however model: 'molecule' is not a localized content type. Enable localization if you want to query or localized entries.",
    "details": {}
  }
}

Is it possible to configure the plugin to ignore the locale parameter in the non-localized content types?

Hey @drazik,

thank you for bringing this up. It is not possible at the moment, but I'll try to add a way to query the locale scoped to a content type asap.

Hey @drazik ,

just had a look at the problem you are facing. I suggest you just drop the locale query parameter and instead filter for the locale of a given contentType. That should work 🙂.

e.G.:

http://localhost:1337/api/fuzzy-search/search?query=whatever&filters[books][locale]=en.

I will add a disclaimer to the Readme, however, that the locale as a "global" query parameter expects all content types to be available in the locale.
