Fuzzy search pattern problem

[bruno-carvalho-everest]

Hi,

I think there is a problem in your fuzzy search logic. In case you execute the line match = re.search(re.escape(best_match[0]), edited_content), you are not updating the pattern variable, which compiles for the exact match string, instead of the fuzzy match result. So when you do pattern.sub, I think this would fail. Did I miss something?

         # Use regex to find the content, ignoring leading/trailing whitespace
         pattern = re.compile(re.escape(search_content), re.DOTALL)
         match = pattern.search(edited_content)

         if match or (USE_FUZZY_SEARCH and similarity >= 0.8):
             if not match:
                 # If using fuzzy search and no exact match, find the best match
                 best_match = difflib.get_close_matches(search_content, [edited_content], n=1, cutoff=0.6)
                 if best_match:
                     match = re.search(re.escape(best_match[0]), edited_content)

             if match:
                 # Replace the content using re.sub for more robust replacement
                 replace_content_cleaned = re.sub(r'</?SEARCH>|</?REPLACE>', '', replace_content)
                 edited_content = pattern.sub(replace_content_cleaned, edited_content, count=1)
                 changes_made = True
