Hi Team,

~1.5 years ago (August 2022) we migrated our Lucene issue tracking from
Jira to GitHub. Thank you Tomoko for all the hard work doing such a
complex, multi-phased, high-fidelity migration!

I finally finished also migrating jirasearch to GitHub:
githubsearch.mikemccandless.com. It was tricky because GitHub issues/PRs
are fundamentally more complex than Jira's data model, and the GitHub REST
API is also quite rich / heavily normalized. All of the source code for
githubsearch lives here
<https://github.com/mikemccand/luceneserver/tree/master/examples/githubsearch>.
The UI remains its barebones self ;)

Githubsearch
<https://github.com/mikemccand/luceneserver/tree/master/examples/githubsearch>
is dog food for us: it showcases Lucene (currently 9.8.0), and many of its
fun features like infix autosuggest, block join queries (each comment is a
sub-document on the issue/PR), DrillSideways faceting, near-real-time
indexing/searching, synonyms (try “oome
<https://githubsearch.mikemccandless.com/search.py?text=oome&dd=status%3AOpen>”),
expressions, non-relevance and blended-relevance sort, etc.  (This old blog
post
<https://blog.mikemccandless.com/2016/10/jiraseseach-20-dog-food-using-lucene-to.html>
goes
into detail.)  Plus, it’s meta-fun to use Lucene to search its own issues,
to help us be more productive in improving Lucene!  Nicely recursive.

In addition to good ol’ searching by text, githubsearch
<https://githubsearch.mikemccandless.com/> has some new/fun features:

   - Drill down to just PRs or issues
   - Filter by “review requested” for a given user: poor Adrien has 8
   (open) now
   
<https://githubsearch.mikemccandless.com/search.py?sort=recentlyUpdated&dd=status%3AOpen&dd=requested_reviewers%3Ajpountz>
   (sorry)! Or see your mentions (Robert is mentioned in 27 open issues/PRs
   
<https://githubsearch.mikemccandless.com/search.py?sort=recentlyUpdated&dd=status%3AOpen&dd=mentioned_users%3Armuir>).
   Or PRs that you reviewed (Uwe has reviewed 9 still-open PRs
   
<https://githubsearch.mikemccandless.com/search.py?sort=recentlyUpdated&dd=status%3AOpen&dd=reviewed_users%3Auschindler>).
   Or issues and PRs where a user has had any involvement at all (Dawid has
   interacted on 197 issues/PRs
   
<https://githubsearch.mikemccandless.com/search.py?sort=recentlyUpdated&dd=reviewed_users%3Adweiss>
   ).
   - Find still-open PRs that were created by a New Contributor
   
<https://githubsearch.mikemccandless.com/search.py?chg=dds&text=&a1=author_association&a2=New+contributor&page=0&searcher=25792&sort=recentlyUpdated&format=list&id=cjhfx60attlt&dd=status%3AOpen&newText=>
   (an author who has no changes merged into our repository) or Contributor
   
<https://githubsearch.mikemccandless.com/search.py?sort=recentlyUpdated&dd=status%3AOpen&dd=author_association%3AContributor>
   (non-committer who has had some changes merged into our repository) or
   Member
   
<https://githubsearch.mikemccandless.com/search.py?sort=recentlyUpdated&dd=status%3AOpen&dd=author_association%3AMember>
   - Here are the uber-stale (last touched more than a month ago) open PRs
   by outside contributors
   
<https://githubsearch.mikemccandless.com/search.py?sort=recentlyUpdated&dd=status%3AOpen&dd=author_association%3ANew+contributor%2CContributor%2CNone&dd=updated_ago%3A%3E+1+month+ago&dd=issue_or_pr%3APR>.
   We should ideally keep this at 0, but it’s 83 now!
   - “Link to this search” to get a short-er, more permanent URL (it is NOT
   a URL shortener, though!)
   - Save named searches you frequently run (they just save to local cookie
   state on that one browser)

I’m sure there are exciting bugs, feedback/patches welcome!  If you see
problems, please reply to this email or file an issue here
<https://github.com/mikemccand/luceneserver/issues>.

Note that jirasearch <https://jirasearch.mikemccandless.com/search.py>
remains running, to search Solr, Tika and Infra issues.

Happy Searching,

Mike McCandless
