This adds support for custom boosts to the addressit-style search
queries. The newer libpostal based queries do not include this
functionality since they can only query for addresses.
This is a work in progress to enable customizing boosts for sources and
layers.
For now, the config must be hardcoded in query/autocomplete.js, but it
will eventually be driven by `pelias.json` and take effect on all
endpoints.
This is a somewhat roundabout fix to #1179,
as a way to deal with the persistent npm ls
and commit hook troubles we were dealing with
due to dependencies of the iso3166 package.
Additionally it should give us a faster
definition of these ISO lookups, since the
existing approaches were implemented using
linear scans through an array rather than
map-based lookups.
Fixes#1132
The Quattroshapes source has been deprecated from
some time now, and any users for whom the deprecation
notice was helpful have presumably either upgraded
or moved on by now.
Previously, our text sanitizer code did not trim whitespace before
checking that the string was non-empty. This lead to strings consisting
only of whitespace being treated as valid. Not all our downstream
services (such as libpostal) accept whitespace-only input, so this
causes a rather harsh error.
This PR builds upon the code in https://github.com/pelias/api/pull/1170
and moves the trimming code above the nonEmptyString check. Now, a
whitespace-only input string produces the normal error for empty input.

This query extends the standard focus query view with hardcoded layers
for which the query applies. The intent was to apply the focus scoring
only to non-admin areas, but the list of layers was already out of date,
as it was missing streets.
The query is fundamentally problematic with custom layers as well.
In cases where several conditions are met, it is possible for results to
be returned from the API that are not sorted as they were intended.
These conditions are:
* over 10 results total were returned from Elasticsearch
* the interpolation middleware was called
* not all street results end up with possible interpolated address
matches, and some of those streets come before other interpolated
address records, necessitating a re-sorting of the results in the
interpolation middleware
In these cases, the ordering of streets as defined by Elasticsearch,
such as by linguistic match or distance from a focus point, will no
longer be respected in the results.
This is because Node.js's `Array.prototype.sort` uses an
[*un*stable QuickSort for arrays of size 11 or greater](https://github.com/nodejs/node/blob/master/deps/v8/src/js/array.js#L670).
The solution is to switch to a sorting algorithm that is always stable.
This ensures that whatever ordering was specified in the Elasticsearch
queries is observed, without any of that logic having to be duplicated,
and then possibly conflict.
Stable sorting is provided by the [stable](http://npmjs.com/stable) NPM
package.
This error message is updated to mention the coarse-reverse only nature
of Geonames support removal. It also links to the
[tracking ticket](https://github.com/pelias/acceptance-tests/pull/447)
for Geonames removal which should help provide more context to users.
`/place` queries have been executing in a way where only the ID, but not
the layer, has been considered when returning records from
Elasticsearch.
It turns out this bug was introduced almost a year and a half ago in
https://github.com/pelias/api/pull/407. A little, relatively unimportant
bit of code was looking for a property called `layers`:
```
const cmd = req.clean.ids.map( function(id) {
return {
_index: apiConfig.indexName,
_type: id.layers,
_id: id.id
};
});
```
The correct property was `layer`, so no filtering on layer was done in
the resulting [mget](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/reference/current/docs-multi-get.html) query.
There was never an acceptance test for these sorts of queries, but there
is now one in https://github.com/pelias/acceptance-tests/pull/446. The
unit tests were enforcing the incorrect behavior.
