Description
Hi there! Thanks for your great work on this Addon!
Unfortunally the search is very inaccurate. For example, in my company we have documents with customer IDs like P#9234v which are added to the paper with a label sticker and get scanned after that with OCR as PDF. The Fulltext Search in nextcloud gets confused with this and find nothing. I also had a look into the elasticsearch server itself with the tool Dejavu and tried to find the id there - no success.
after some googleing i found the tool ambar.cloud. I made a little proof of concet setup with installing ambar cloud and give it the data source dir as webdav mountpoint on the machine. the search results are amazing! I wish this quality of search results were built in to nextcloud! :)
I'm not a developer, just a linux admin - but maybe someone has the mood and time to have a look to ambar.cloud and find a way to integrate it with nextcloud? that would be fantastic! :)
For now my workaround is an ambar.cloud instance for my colleagues - but its not very handy but good for now :)
Best regards from Berlin!
