I'm trying to do a Lucene search by a specific string term.
Eg: I had the tags 1-"Hello World", 2-"Hello, Steve", 3-"Helloween" and finally 4-"Hello" if I look for the last tag (hello), Lucene will bring all tags, because all of them had "hello" at some point. I need an operator or a logic that makes the search without "like".
There is a way to avoid this using the clause "must_not" (- operator) and the query will be:
term:hello -term:world. But this is not the case, cause I will need to find all other words that should not be in search.
private <T> Query createQuery(final Class<T> clazz, String s, final String[] fields, final SearchFactory searchFactory, final Boolean allowLeadingWildcard) throws ParseException {
final Analyzer analyzer = searchFactory.getAnalyzer(clazz);
final QueryParser parser = new MultiFieldQueryParser(Version.LUCENE_36, fields, analyzer);
Query query = null;
try{
query = parser.parse(s);
} catch(...){...}
return query;
My knowledge of Lucene is short, so I will place an SQL example to see if will be easier to understand
/*This is what Lucene is doing. It will bring "HELLO", "HELLO WORLD", "Hello, Steve"...*/
WHERE table.tag LIKE "%HELLO%"
/*This is what I want. Match exactly the term "HELLO" and nothing more*/
WHERE table.tag = "HELLO"
I guess that this is the Analyzer used in the application:
public class AnalyserCustom extends Analyzer {
@Override
public TokenStream tokenStream(final String fieldName, final Reader reader) {
final StandardTokenizer tokenizer = new StandardTokenizer(Version.LUCENE_36, reader);
TokenStream stream = new StandardFilter(Version.LUCENE_36, tokenizer);
stream = new LowerCaseFilter(Version.LUCENE_36, stream);
return new ASCIIFoldingFilter(stream);
}
}
And the attribute TAG is this:
...
@Field
private String tagname;
...
Any suggestions?
PS: I'm new to Lucene.
