Jifty::Action::Record::Search3pm
Automagic search action

"field"_contains and"field"_lacks arguments
- "date", or "timestamp" fields
-
Create
"field"_before,"field"_after,"field"_since and"field"_until arguments.

Generate
"field"_lt,"field"_gt,"field"_le and"field"_ge arguments, as well as a"field"_dwim field that accepts a prefixed comparison operator in the search value, such as">100"and"!100".

Return a collection with the result of the search specified by the given arguments.
We interpret a "undef" argument as SQL "NULL", and ignore empty or non-present arguments.
