Ricerche con caratteri jolly

Per fare ricerche dove la parte variabile della stringa è un solo carattere, utilizzare il simbolo "?". Per esmpio facendo una ricerca del tipo

 te?t

si sta dicendo che si cercano parole di quattro caratteri dove il primo, secondo e quarto sono fissati mentre il terzo varia; per cui sono ottenibili risultati del tipo: "text" o "test".


Per effettuare ricerche dove i caratteri varianti sono più di uno e adiacenti si usa il simbolo "*"; questo rappresenta n caratteri con n>=0. Per esempio cercando

 test*

si otterranno risultati come: test, tests, tester ecc.

I caratteri jolly possono essere anche usati all'interno di una stringa come:

 te*t

Nota: Non è possibile usare i caratteri * e ? come primo carattere nella ricerca.

Fuzzy Searches

OpenKM supports fuzzy searches based on the Levenshtein Distance, or Edit Distance algorithm. To do a fuzzy search use the tilde, "~", symbol at the end of a Single word Term. For example to search for a term similar in spelling to "roam" use the fuzzy search:

 roam~

This search will find terms like foam and roams.

Boolean Operators

Boolean operators allow terms to be combined through logic operators. Lucene supports AND, "+", OR, NOT and "-" as Boolean operators(Note: Boolean operators must be ALL CAPS).

OR

The OR operator is the default conjunction operator. This means that if there is no Boolean operator between two terms, the OR operator is used. The OR operator links two terms and finds a matching document if either of the terms exist in a document. This is equivalent to a union using sets. The symbol || can be used in place of the word OR.

To search for documents that contain either "jakarta apache" or just "jakarta" use the query:

 "jakarta apache" jakarta

or

 "jakarta apache" OR jakarta

AND

The AND operator matches documents where both terms exist anywhere in the text of a single document. This is equivalent to an intersection using sets. The symbol && can be used in place of the word AND.

To search for documents that contain "jakarta apache" and "Apache Lucene" use the query:

 "jakarta apache" AND "Apache Lucene"

+

The "+" or required operator requires that the term after the "+" symbol exist somewhere in a the field of a single document.

To search for documents that must contain "jakarta" and may contain "lucene" use the query:

 +jakarta lucene

NOT

The NOT operator excludes documents that contain the term after NOT. This is equivalent to a difference using sets. The symbol ! can be used in place of the word NOT.

To search for documents that contain "jakarta apache" but not "Apache Lucene" use the query:

 "jakarta apache" NOT "Apache Lucene"

Note: The NOT operator cannot be used with just one term. For example, the following search will return no results:

 NOT "jakarta apache"

-

The "-" or prohibit operator excludes documents that contain the term after the "-" symbol.

To search for documents that contain "jakarta apache" but not "Apache Lucene" use the query:

 "jakarta apache" -"Apache Lucene"

Grouping

Lucene supports using parentheses to group clauses to form sub queries. This can be very useful if you want to control the boolean logic for a query.

To search for either "jakarta" or "apache" and "website" use the query:

 (jakarta OR apache) AND website

This eliminates any confusion and makes sure you that website must exist and either term jakarta or apache may exist.

Escaping Special Characters

Lucene supports escaping special characters that are part of the query syntax. The current list special characters are

 + - && || ! ( ) { } [ ] ^ " ~ * ? : \

To escape these character use the \ before the character. For example to search for (1+1):2 use the query:

 \(1\+1\)\:2
