Details

From the help for this method "The datastore_search action allows you to search data in a resource. DataStore resources that belong to private CKAN resource can only be read by you if you have access to the CKAN resource and send the appropriate authorization."

Setting plain=FALSE enables the entire PostgreSQL full text search query language. A listing of all available resources can be found at the alias table_metadata full text search query language: http://www.postgresql.org/docs/9.1/static/datatype-textsearch.html#DATATYPE-TSQUERY
