heading search case sensitive
bitclick opened this issue · comments
this is not a bug i think, but a case of user-confusion ;-)
in helm-org-ql the query for the heading-text is case-sensitive. Is it possible to make it case-insensitive without adding lots of regex-sugar to the query? maybe provide an argument for the function.
CONTEXT:
I am trying to implement a quick way to jump to PROJECT headings (keyword PROJECT). in helm-org-ql i can search for
todo:PROJECT build house
which finds
- PROJECT build house
but not
- PROJECT Build house
am i missing something? maybe helm-org-ql is not the right tool for this. i tried helm-org-rifle and helm-org-agenda-headings with no luck.. i did not find any documentation on how to preinsert my keyword-query or a custom filter function. i would like to have a binding to quickly search for a project heading an jump to it.
any ideas are much appreciated :-)

No, it's not. Maybe you have changed the value of case-fold-search in your Emacs config.

You could define your own Helm command, modeled on helm-org-ql, and set the helm function's :input argument to "todo:PROJECT ".
thanks for the fast reply! sadly no luck :-(
i checked case-fold-search and some other ones helm-case-fold.. etc.
The query todo:PROJECT build does not find * PROJECT Build House,
the query todo: build does find it. As soon as i specify a keyword, the search becomes case-sensitive.
org-ql-search shows the same behavior while the non-org-ql helm-tools (for example 'helm-org-in-buffer-headings`) don't (they are case insensitive).
Creating my own search function with :input was easy though ;-) now it's only the case-fold-confusion.
Any ideas? (i am on up-to-date spacemacs with up-to-date packages, also latest org-ql)
i checked the sexp-query and get the same behavior (in org-ql-search):
(and (todo "PROJECT") (r "build")) does not find * PROJECT Build House but
(and (todo "PROJECT") (r "Build")) does.
Thanks, you did discover a bug in the case folding. It should be fixed now. Please let me know if it works for you.
jep, it's working great. thanks!
