- Move pg_trgm extension creation to initialization phase to ensure availability - Add error handling for similarity search queries that depend on pg_trgm - Implement fallback to basic ILIKE matching when pg_trgm is unavailable - Add proper logging for debugging search-related issues Fixes issues where PostgreSQL search suggestions fail due to missing or improperly initialized pg_trgm extension, particularly in containerized environments where extension creation timing matters.
Refactor error handling for search suggestions to simplify code.

Thanks. I removed the ILIKE fallback section as I don't think it will yield relevant enough suggestions, especially since it looks in middle of words as well. pg_trgm is a base extension that should always be included unless you build postgres yourself, so I'd rather have admins focus on adding the missing extension that having a fallback that produces subpar results. |
