Bug Hunting in Hyrax

I recently had to find a bug in a Hyrax application, and I thought it might be helpful if I documented the process.

1. Define the problem

I like to start a bug hunt with a clear description of what exactly I’m trying to solve. A great place to do this is in a ticket on the team’s board. In this case, the problem was that when new works were submitted to Hyrax via the create work form, the visibility was not being persisted. I find it helpful to write out the bug definition as a user story:

As a content contributor, when I submit a new work through the form, I want to be able to make it public so that it will be visible to the world. Instead, the work always ends up being marked as restricted / private.

Adding blacklight_advanced_search to Hyku

I was recently asked to add Blacklight Advanced Search to a Hyku app for the US Department of Transportation. It was a little tricky, so I’m documenting the process in the hopes of making life easier for the next person who has to do this.

Many thanks to Dean Farrell at UNC Libraries for pointing me at UNC’s hy-c implementation, where blacklight advanced search is installed into Hyrax: https://github.com/UNC-Libraries/hy-c/pull/421/files

David Kinzer’s Blacklight Search Notes are also excellent background reading: https://gist.github.com/dkinzer/4f6dbb4634dbbdc99255dbea6305ccae
