Hello,

I'm working on a Skosmos 3 installation for the Brazilian

Agricultural Research Corporation and I'm facing some problems related to the global search component shown in top bar.

When an user type some letters in the search field nothing happens. If after typing the user clicks in the search field, the dropdown list appears, but clicking one of the listed concepts does not open the concept page, as it was expected.

Investigating the problem I notice that the browser's debugger shows the following error for every letter typed in the search field:

Interestingly, the error only occurs in the global search. Vocabulary search works as expected.
I observed the problem in Skosmos v3.3 and 3.4-dev, using our own container build and also using the container image available in quay.io.

Curiously, I haven't observer the problem when using the Skosmos demo (demo.skosmos.org) installation, what makes me think whether this problem is a bug in Skosmos or some kind of issue in our config.ttl.

Could this behavior be caused by a configuration issue or is this really an application bug?

Best regards,

Anderson

Hello Anderson,

thanks for your message and sorry for the belated response.

I think this looks like a bug. For some reason, the "types" fiels in the
SKOSMOS global object is not being properly initialized. Can you please
report this as a bug on GitHub?

Please include the snippet from the HTML source where the SKOSMOS object
is initialized. It looks something like this:

<script id="skosmos-global-vars">
window.SKOSMOS = {
"content_lang": "en",
"explicitLangCodes": false,
"lang": "en",
[...]
"pluginParameters": [],"baseHref":
"https://demo.skosmos.org/","types":
{"http://www.w3.org/2004/02/skos/core#Concept": "Concept"
},"contentLanguages": { "en": "English" }
}
</script>

Especially the "types" field near the end is the crucial part.

Best,
Osma
