-<p>Search indexes allow queries to be made for any type of data that is indexed by the Chef server, including data bags (and data bag items), environments, nodes, and roles. A defined query syntax is used to support search patterns like exact, wildcard, range, and fuzzy. A search is a full-text query that can be done from several locations, including from within a recipe, by using the <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">search</span></tt> subcommand in knife, the <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">search</span></tt> method in the Recipe DSL, and by using the <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">/search</span></tt> or <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">/search/INDEX</span></tt> endpoints in the Chef server API. The search engine is based on Apache Solr and is run from the Chef server.</p>
-<p>The <strong>knife search</strong> subcommand is used run a search query for information that is indexed on a Chef server.</p>
-<div class="section" id="syntax">
-<h2>Syntax<a class="headerlink" href="#syntax" title="Permalink to this headline">¶</a></h2>
-<p>This subcommand has the following syntax:</p>
-<div class="highlight-bash"><div class="highlight"><pre><span class="nv">$ </span>knife search INDEX SEARCH_QUERY
-</pre></div>
-</div>
-<p>where <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">INDEX</span></tt> is one of <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">client</span></tt>, <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">environment</span></tt>, <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">node</span></tt>, <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">role</span></tt>, or the name of a data bag and <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">SEARCH_QUERY</span></tt> is the search query syntax for the query that will be executed.</p>
-<p><tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">INDEX</span></tt> is implied if omitted, and will default to <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">node</span></tt>. For example:</p>
-<div class="highlight-bash"><div class="highlight"><pre><span class="nv">$ </span>knife search <span class="s1">&quot;*:*&quot;</span> -i
-</pre></div>
-</div>
-<p>will return something similar to:</p>
-<div class="highlight-bash"><div class="highlight"><pre>8 items found
-
-centos-62-dev
-opensuse-1203
-ubuntu-1304-dev
-ubuntu-1304-orgtest
-ubuntu-1204-ohai-test
-ubuntu-1304-ifcfg-test
-ohai-test
-win2k8-dev
-</pre></div>
-</div>
-<p>and is the same search as:</p>
-<div class="highlight-bash"><div class="highlight"><pre>$ knife search node &quot;*:*&quot; -i
-</pre></div>
-</div>
-<p>If the <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">SEARCH_QUERY</span></tt> does not contain a colon character (<tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">:</span></tt>), then the default query pattern is <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">tags:*#{&#64;query}*</span> <span class="pre">OR</span> <span class="pre">roles:*#{&#64;query}*</span> <span class="pre">OR</span> <span class="pre">fqdn:*#{&#64;query}*</span> <span class="pre">OR</span> <span class="pre">addresses:*#{&#64;query}*</span></tt>, which means the following two search queries are effectively the same:</p>
-<div class="highlight-bash"><div class="highlight"><pre><span class="nv">$ </span>knife search ubuntu
-</pre></div>
-</div>
-<p>or:</p>
-<div class="highlight-bash"><div class="highlight"><pre><span class="nv">$ </span>knife search node <span class="s2">&quot;tags:*ubuntu* OR roles:*ubuntu* OR fqdn:*ubuntu* (etc.)&quot;</span>

-<h2>Examples<a class="headerlink" href="#examples" title="Permalink to this headline">¶</a></h2>
-<p>The following examples show how to use this knife subcommand:</p>
-<p><strong>Search by platform ID</strong></p>
-<p>To search for the IDs of all nodes running on the Amazon EC2 platform, enter:</p>
-<div class="highlight-bash"><div class="highlight"><pre><span class="nv">$ </span>knife search node <span class="s1">&quot;ec2:*&quot;</span> -i
-</pre></div>
-</div>
-<p>to return something like:</p>
-<div class="highlight-bash"><div class="highlight"><pre>4 items found
-
-ip-0A7CA19F.ec2.internal
-
-ip-0A58CF8E.ec2.internal
-
-ip-0A58E134.ec2.internal
-
-ip-0A7CFFD5.ec2.internal
-</pre></div>
-</div>
-<p><strong>Search by instance type</strong></p>
-<p>To search for the instance type (flavor) of all nodes running on the Amazon EC2 platform, enter:</p>
-<div class="highlight-bash"><div class="highlight"><pre><span class="nv">$ </span>knife search node <span class="s1">&quot;ec2:*&quot;</span> -a ec2.instance_type
-</pre></div>
-</div>
-<p>to return something like:</p>
-<div class="highlight-bash"><div class="highlight"><pre>4 items found
-
-ec2.instance_type: m1.large
-id: ip-0A7CA19F.ec2.internal
-
-ec2.instance_type: m1.large
-id: ip-0A58CF8E.ec2.internal
-
-ec2.instance_type: m1.large
-id: ip-0A58E134.ec2.internal
-
-ec2.instance_type: m1.large
-id: ip-0A7CFFD5.ec2.internal
-</pre></div>
-</div>
-<p><strong>Search by node</strong></p>
-<p>To search for all nodes running Ubuntu, enter:</p>
-<div class="highlight-bash"><div class="highlight"><pre><span class="nv">$ </span>knife search node <span class="s1">&quot;platform:ubuntu&quot;</span>
-</pre></div>
-</div>
-<p><strong>Search by node and environment</strong></p>
-<p>To search for all nodes running CentOS in the production environment, enter:</p>
-<div class="highlight-bash"><div class="highlight"><pre><span class="nv">$ </span>knife search node <span class="s1">&quot;chef_environment:production AND platform:centos&quot;</span>
-</pre></div>
-</div>
-<p><strong>Search for nested attributes</strong></p>
-<p>To find a nested attribute, use a pattern similar to the following:</p>
-<div class="highlight-bash"><div class="highlight"><pre><span class="nv">$ </span>knife search node &lt;query_to_run&gt; -a &lt;main_attribute&gt;.&lt;nested_attribute&gt;
-</pre></div>
-</div>
-<p><strong>Search for multiple attributes</strong></p>
-<p>To build a search query to use more than one attribute, use an underscore (<tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">_</span></tt>) to separate each attribute. For example, the following query will search for all nodes running a specific version of Ruby:</p>
-<div class="highlight-bash"><div class="highlight"><pre><span class="nv">$ </span>knife search node <span class="s2">&quot;languages_ruby_version:1.9.3&quot;</span>
-</pre></div>
-</div>
-<p><strong>Search for nested attributes using a search query</strong></p>
-<p>To build a search query that can find a nested attribute:</p>
-<div class="highlight-bash"><div class="highlight"><pre><span class="nv">$ </span>knife search node name:&lt;node_name&gt; -a kernel.machine
-</pre></div>
-</div>
-<p><strong>Use a test query</strong></p>
-<p>To test a search query that will be used in a <strong>knife ssh</strong> command:</p>
-<div class="highlight-bash"><div class="highlight"><pre><span class="nv">$ </span>knife search node <span class="s2">&quot;role:web NOT name:web03&quot;</span>
-</pre></div>
-</div>
-<p>where the query in the previous example will search all servers that have the <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">web</span></tt> role, but not on the server named <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">web03</span></tt>.</p>
