Where
What
When the user is writting the tags for a proposal, a debate or an investment project, the page should suggest other tags that already exist so that users can select those tags instead of creating new and similiar ones (e.g. motorbike and motorcycle).
How
I used the autocomplete widget from
jquery-ui
to do it. When the user is writing, the widget looks for similar words in the DB using thepg_search
gem. The gem retrieves the results and they are shown in a list under the text field. The user can select one of the results using the mouse or the down and up arrows on the keyboard. When an option is selected, it is automatically added to the list.Screenshots
Test
I increased the test coverage for the tags' search function.
