• We want two things
  • Query for top k matches
  • Query for all matches below distance threshold
• Currently match just gives exact matches according to some threshold
• So we will add two new endpoints to ThreatExchange
  • threshold_lookup
  • topk_lookup

TODO:

In this repo

• Modify or create new methods similar to query that performs the desired queries from above (threshold and topk)

In ThreatExchange

• Modify or create new methods for query_index and lookup to make the new endpoints above (threshold_lookup, topk_lookup) available

When adding new endpoints, you could refer to this commit as an example.
