Description

It would be useful to add a Search by Parameter field to the search bar

Adding these two lines in _searchbar.erb seems to do it:

diff --git a/app/views/common/_searchbar.erb b/app/views/common/_searchbar.erb
index 91abe8b..c9adc52 100644
--- a/app/views/common/_searchbar.erb
+++ b/app/views/common/_searchbar.erb
@@ -20,6 +20,8 @@
           </span>
           <%= f.label :hostgroup, "Role" %>
           <%= f.collection_select :hostgroup_id_eq, Hostgroup.all, :id, :name, :include_blank => true %>
+          <%= f.label :parameter, "Parameter" %>
+          <%= f.text_field :host_parameters_name_like, :size => 10 %>
           <%= render :partial => 'common/fact_selected' %>
           <%= f.submit "Go" %> Save as tab: <%= text_field_tag :tab_name, "" %>
         <% end %>

This is useful as assigning parameters to individual hosts creates "drift" and there should be a way to search for such Parameters.

         <% end %>

This works too, but how can I improve?

@Paul, do you want to generalize your domain parameters to any type of parameters?
as we are limited with screen size (but have many options for searching) maybe we need to break down more search options, like two select drop boxes (like with facts).
