Misleading search result for bridges

When searching for bridges rather than relays, Globe says "No data available in table" (see the attached screenshot) -- even if the bridge exists and is found. Earlier, we had a user on IRC who was confused and concluded that his bridge didn't report itself successfully.

Could we modify the search result page for bridges and make it look like for relays?

added bridge component::metrics/globe globe owner::rndm priority::medium relay resolution::fixed search status::closed type::enhancement labels

I don't know if the user intended to search for a bridge.

I could check if the search query looks like a fingerprint and test if the result contains a bridge and no relay. If that's the case enable the bridge tab.

Do you think this would solve the issue?

I changed the behavior of the search results:

If the result has no bridges but relays, it activates the relay tab. If the result has bridges but no relays, it activates the bridges tab.

This should fix the reported issue. If anything speaks against this solution tell me.

I deployed a live version to http://globe.rndm.de/canary/

If everything is ok, I'm going to merge the changes to master.

Replying to rndm:

If the result has no bridges but relays, it activates the relay tab. If the result has bridges but no relays, it activates the bridges tab.

Sounds like a good fix to me.

It works fine for my bridge but when I then look for my relays by searching for "karlstad", it shows that two relays were found but there's again the message "No data available in table".

Sorry, my fault. I forgot to deploy the latest version.

It should work now.

Just tested and it works fine. Thanks!

Please ping me when you find the time to merge your branch on GitHub, so Karsten or I can upload the new version to globe.torproject.org.

globe.torproject.org is now running Globe in version 0.4.5 and the problem should be fixed. Thanks, rndm!
