NAME
KinoSearch1::QueryParser::QueryParser - transform a string into a Query object
SYNOPSIS
my $query_parser = KinoSearch1::QueryParser::QueryParser->new(
analyzer => $analyzer,
fields => [ 'bodytext' ],
);
my $query = $query_parser->parse( $query_string );
my $hits = $searcher->search( query => $query );
DESCRIPTION
The QueryParser accepts search strings as input and produces Query objects, suitable for feeding into KinoSearch1::Searcher.
Syntax
The following constructs are recognized by QueryParser.
o Boolean operators 'AND', 'OR', and 'AND NOT'.
o Prepented +plus and -minus, indicating that the labeled entity should be either required or forbidden -- be it a single word, a phrase,
or a parenthetical group.
o Logical groups, delimited by parentheses.
o Phrases, delimited by double quotes.
o Field-specific terms, in the form of "fieldname:termtext". (The field specified by fieldname will be used instead of the QueryParser's
default fields).
A field can also be given to a logical group, in which case it is the same as if the field had been prepended onto every term in the
group. For example: "foo:(bar baz)" is the same as "foo:bar foo:baz".
METHODS
new
my $query_parser = KinoSearch1::QueryParser::QueryParser->new(
analyzer => $analyzer, # required
fields => [ 'bodytext' ], # required
default_boolop => 'AND', # default: 'OR'
);
Constructor. Takes hash-style parameters:
o analyzer - An object which subclasses KinoSearch1::Analysis::Analyzer. This must be identical to the Analyzer used at index-time, or
the results won't match up.
o fields - the names of the fields which will be searched against. Must be supplied as an arrayref.
o default_field - deprecated. Use "fields" instead.
o default_boolop - two possible values: 'AND' and 'OR'. The default is 'OR', which means: return documents which match any of the query
terms. If you want only documents which match all of the query terms, set this to 'AND'.
parse
my $query = $query_parser->parse( $query_string );
Turn a query string into a Query object. Depending on the contents of the query string, the returned object could be any one of several
subclasses of KinoSearch1::Search::Query.
