​
Overview

The search_global function performs a semantic search across all accessible knowledge bases.

​
Function Signature

pub async fn search_global(
    options: KnowledgeBaseSearchOptions
) -> Result<KnowledgeBaseSearchResult>

​
Parameters

​
options
KnowledgeBaseSearchOptions
required
Search configuration:
  • query: Search query text (required)
  • limit: Maximum number of results to return (optional, default: 10)
  • threshold: Minimum similarity score (optional, default: 0.7)

​
Return Value

Returns Result<KnowledgeBaseSearchResult> containing:
  • results: Vector of search results with relevance scores
  • total_results: Total number of matching results

​
Basic Usage

use wacht::api::knowledge_bases::*;

let search_options = KnowledgeBaseSearchOptions {
    query: "How to configure authentication?".to_string(),
    limit: Some(5),
    threshold: Some(0.8),
};

let results = search_global(search_options).await?;
println!("Found {} results", results.total_results);

for result in results.results {
    println!("Score: {:.2} - {}", result.score, result.content);
    println!("  From: {} ({})", result.document_name, result.knowledge_base_name);
}

​
Advanced Usage

use wacht::api::knowledge_bases::*;

async fn search_with_context(query: &str) -> Result<Vec<String>> {
    let options = KnowledgeBaseSearchOptions {
        query: query.to_string(),
        limit: Some(10),
        threshold: Some(0.75),
    };

    let results = search_global(options).await?;

    let contexts: Vec<String> = results.results
        .into_iter()
        .map(|r| format!("[{}] {}", r.knowledge_base_name, r.content))
        .collect();

    Ok(contexts)
}

​
Error Handling

match search_global(options).await {
    Ok(results) => {
        println!("Search completed: {} results", results.total_results);
        for (i, result) in results.results.iter().enumerate() {
            println!("{}. Score: {:.3} - {} chars",
                i + 1, result.score, result.content.len());
        }
    }
    Err(Error::Api { status, message, .. }) => {
        match status.as_u16() {
            400 => println!("Invalid search query: {}", message),
            403 => println!("Access denied: {}", message),
            429 => println!("Rate limited: {}", message),
            _ => println!("API error {}: {}", status, message),
        }
    }
    Err(e) => println!("Search failed: {}", e),
}
