I am very new to this and trying to figure out how best searches querys can be handled. Right now any single word search query works but when I have two words it will not work.
import { sql } from '@vercel/postgres';
import { ProductFormat } from "../server/ProductFormat"
export async function pullProducts(page = 1, search = 'Two Words') {
const pageSize = 24
const pageOffset = (page - 1) * 24
const result = await sql`
SELECT * FROM table
WHERE title LIKE ${`%${search}%`}
ORDER BY title ASC
LIMIT ${pageSize} OFFSET ${pageOffset}
`;
const totalProducts = await sql`
SELECT COUNT(*) FROM table
WHERE title LIKE ${`%${search}%`}
`;
const productsTyped = result.rows as ProductFormat[];
return {
products: productsTyped,
totalProducts: parseInt(totalProducts.rows[0].count, 10)
};
}

hey, for an advanced full text search on postgres you can take a look at it's integrated FTS functionality: https://www.crunchydata.com/blog/postgres-full-text-search-a-search-engine-in-a-database
though i'm skeptical whether it could be applied on a vercel postgres database, i haven't used one so i can't give any guarantee that it'll work just fine there
