Autocomplete Solr suggester doesn't support trailing whitespace

Created on 28 February 2025, 4 months ago

Problem/Motivation

There are Solr lookup implementations where you actually want a suggestion after a space, for example with the "FreeTextLookupFactory" and using the space as separator.

Search API Autocomplete (submodule) trims trailing whitespace, which limits the capabilities of Solr suggesters like "FreeTextLookupFactory".

Steps to reproduce

The setQuery method from Solarium performs a trim, see:
https://git.drupalcode.org/project/search_api_solr/-/blob/4.3.8/modules/...
and https://github.com/solariumphp/solarium/blob/6.3.7/src/Component/QueryTr....

Proposed resolution

Update suggester to not trim on the right side of the query.
