custom queries

[tarnung]

Basic setup for predefined queries. Code still very messy but working.

Define queries in the settings menu to have easy access to them in the search popup.
Queries are subdivided into contextual, file-local and global queries. Contextual queries are not user defined, but appear when fixed criteria are met (currently only list of activ clocks).

Feedback is very welcome before I start to clean up the code changes a bit.

This is an exciting UX concept in that it allows for different scopes with different queries that are available at all times.

It's completely different from the bookmark feature for search, but it could be precious for people with many projects that want different scopes for various searches.

On a first try, I like it and am stoked that you've already come up with the next major epic in a usable PR! 🙏 🙇

I started out with the "bookmark search" feature in mind, but I started to build from the "stored query" that we introduced for the clock list.

I'm not sure yet if this feature is useful. I have it on staging and i'll see if I use it at all.
There's the possibility that a "bookmark search" feature could be much more flexible and quicker to use.

It's pretty awesome that you've implemented both options!

The way you've implemented the bookmarks feature is straightforward (in UI surface and code), so it was trivial for me to merge right away.

I think I'll use it more than the custom queries. It seems simpler for me as a user. Given that the organice search syntax is quite straightforward, the actual search string is a good name for the bookmark, too.

However, custom queries could prove more powerful for a power user. Additionally, you've put a lot of effort into both options, and I'm not against merging the custom queries. So I'll leave the PR open until you give some feedback on your insights on whether or not you're going to make use of custom queries personally. If you do, then this feature will undoubtedly land in master!

I'll use the bookmark feature for a bit. If it does most of what I want, there is no need for another concept. Don't expect feedback on this anytime soon. I guess it does not hurt to let this sit around as a draft pr for the time being.

It does not hurt at all. Take all the time you need!
