Managed to trace back the issue to this PR with the original issue being that using jQuery's
data()
method to retrieve data attribute recasts the type of the values it finds in the data attribute automatically (if it finds a number, it returns a Number).The proposed solution in PR #10 was to use
attr()
instead, which leaves all values as strings.While this fixed the original issue of
data()
typecasting number values as Number, it introduced another issue whereby if a data attribute wasnull
,attr()
returned it as"null"
(as string), in some cases causing Algolia to return no search hits (in this case theq
parameter was being set to"null"
).Fixed the issue by outputting an empty string as
data-q
when the backend returnsnull
as its value.Please note that the PR contains changes from APEX-724 and APEX-721 as well, these will disappear from the diff once these PRs are merged.
