Hi Jonathan, Are you intentionally using the person resource rather than the patient one? Because for 95% of use cases, the patient resource is the right one. (Also, you can't search on the person resource for patient ids.)
I peeked quickly at the code, and I think the person resource delegates its searching to org.openmrs.api.db.hibernate.HibernatePersonDAO.getPeople(String, Boolean). This method *does* look at the given, middle, family, and family2 name components. If you're actually intending to search via the person resource, and you're really seeing this bug, I'll research further. Assuming you actually want the patient resource, as far as I know whatever you pass as its q parameter is treated identically to the patient search box in OpenMRS. (I.e. you can find partial names, or exact identifiers) -Darius On Mon, Apr 16, 2012 at 11:29 AM, Jonathan Galingan <[email protected]>wrote: > When I tried: > http://localhost:8080/openmrs/ws/rest/v1/person?q=john > > it only searched through patients that have a given name "john" .
