/admin/users search

[echarlie]

/admin/users list gets very long with many users and multiple auth providers. It should have some search functionality.

This could be a good introductory task for someone who is already familiar with Python and SQLAlchemy; it should not be particularly difficult and should be a low-risk change.

Do you still need help with this?
if so:
What are you searching through, and what do you need located?

Hi: sorry for taking so long to respond. We're always open to outside contributions.

In /admin/users, we have a list of users; we currently display the fields 'Name' (typically a realname), 'username' (a random string provided by our auth provider, coreos/dex, or a static 'login name' provided for internally-configured users), an email address, and a few other data fields (as per

wuvt-site/wuvt/templates/admin/users.html

Lines 24 to 34 in 7ba9a84

	<tr>
	<td>{{ user.name }}</td>
	<td>{{ user.username }}</td>
	<td>{{ user.email }}</td>
	<td>{{ user.enabled }}</td>
	<td class="row-options">
	{% if config.AUTH_METHOD == "local" %}
	<a href="{{ url_for('admin.user_edit', id=user.id) }}" class="btn btn-default btn-sm">Edit</a>
	{% endif %}
	</td>
	</tr>

).

For example, when I log in through our dex instance with my github account, I show up as:

Name: echarlie
Username: CggxODA0MzQxMxIGZ2l0aHVi 
Email: [email protected]

Ideally, I should be able to search any of these data values, and thus limit the displayed users, but just searching for matches in user.name would be a good start.

Does that answer your questions?
