Index examples
--------------

Index of document types
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

This index will create one level for each document type in the system and place
links to the document of each respective type.

#. Go to the :menuselection:`System --> Setup --> Indexes` menu.
#. Create a new index using :menuselection:`Actions --> Create new`.
#. Give it a label to describe it, and an internal name. The internal name is
   used when referencing this index in other parts of the system.
#. Press the :menuselection:`Template` link of the newly created index.
#. Select :menuselection:`New child node` to create a new level in which the
   following template code will be entered.
   ::

       {{ document.document_type }}

#. Save the template.
#. Go to :menuselection:`Document types` and associate this index with
   existing document types in the system.
#. Finally go to :menuselection:`Tools --> Rebuild indexes` to execute the
   index template. The rebuild process is only necesary when changes are
   made to the index templates. Otherwise they update automatically whenever
   a new document is uploaded or existing documents properties are modified.
#. A new index should appear under :menuselection:`Indexes` menu.

You can also program different behavior based on the different document types,
by use a comparison and a conditional statement. As the document_type itself
is not a string you cannot directly use that for that comparison. You will have
to use the label of the document type.

For example::

    {% if document.document_type.label == "Invoice" or document.document_type.label == "Letter" %}
    Correspondence
    {% else %}
    {{ document.document_type }}
    {% endif %}

This will create and index level for each document type. Except for documents
of types "Invoice" and "Letter", these will now go into the level "Correspondence".


Index document by department, taken from the first character of the invoice number metadata
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

Requires one index node with the template::

    {% if document.metadata_value_of.invoice_number.0 == "A" %}Accounting
    {% if document.metadata_value_of.invoice_number.0 == "H" %}Human Resources
    {% endif %}


Nested date index from a date contained in a metadata
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

Assuming the metadata type is named **date_issued** with a date format
of YYYY-MM-DD. The target is to have two levels: one for years and another
sub level for months.

**First level: Year**
::

    {{ document.metadata_value_of.date_issued|slice:"0:4" }}


**Second level: Months**
::

    {{ document.metadata_value_of.date_issued|slice:"5:7" }}


**Optional: Third level: Day**
::

    {{ document.metadata_value_of.date_issued|slice:"8:10" }}


Index by OCR content
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

This example indexes documents in a "quarterly report" level if they have the
fragment “quarterly report” in the OCR text::

    {% if "quarterly report" in document.latest_version.ocr_content|join:" "|lower %}Quarterly reports{% endif %}

The same applies to text content extracted for the document::

    {% if "quarterly report" in document.latest_version.content|join:" "|lower %}Quarterly reports{% endif %}



Index documents not found in any cabinet
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
::

    {% if document.cabinets.count == 0 %}No Cabinets{% endif %}


Index untagged documents
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
::

    {% if document.tags.count == 0 %}No Tags{% endif %}


Index documents specifically, by the year of a metadata field otherwise by their uploaded year
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
::

    {% for tag in document.tags.all %}{% if tag.label == "Taxes" %}{% if document.metadata_value_of.tax_year|length_is:"4" %}{{ document.metadata_value_of.tax_year }}{% else %}{{ document.date_added|date:"Y" }}{% endif %}{% endif %}{% endfor %}
