Image Collage

Purpose

Image Collage displays image search results as a visual collection.

Use it when browsing pictures is more useful than reading a ranked text list.

What You Can Do Here

  • Image Collage displays image search results as a visual collection.
  • Choose query, target, content type, or integration options according to the user intent.
  • Keep ordinary read-only viewing separate from authenticated actions that alter stored data.

Page Architecture

Public search pages turn request parameters into result lists, previews, snippets, feeds, or integration fragments. They are mostly read-oriented, but some result actions can bookmark, recommend, blacklist, or delete references when authenticated.

Correct Use

Start from the user's information need. Use query text, content type, collection, URL filters, and pagination to narrow results. Do not mix ordinary search with authenticated result actions unless the user explicitly asks to modify stored data.

Access And Safety

The page is normally public or read-only, unless the peer is configured to require authentication for all pages.

Backend checks: user authentication.

Automation And API

Page backend: source/net/yacy/htroot/Collage.java.

Endpoint Method Access Backend

Parameter Meaning and valid values Care

What To Expect
