SOLR / Lucene MultiFieldQueryParser

votes

I wish to query a Lucene index and ask the question "..does the string ABC occur in Field A AND string DEF in Field B ..."

BOTH conditions (ABC in Field A and DEF in Field B) must be true ....I've fooled around with a few searches and don't seem to be hit the proper combination.

Any ideas / examples ...seems that the MultiFieldQueryParser may be the answer but I've had no luck so far.

The standard query parser supports this sort of query, like:

+fielda:ABC +fieldb:DEF

The + character is the required operator, so this query will require a match on both fielda:ABC and fieldb:XYZ.

See the query parser syntax documentation, for more information.

MultiFieldQueryParser is used to automatically search for the same content in multiple fields, so not quite what you are looking for.

Turns out on a SOLR browser search, the q.OP=AND on the URL will provide the ANDING condition I was looking for.
