| <p>Although Lucene provides the ability to create your own |
| queries through its API, it also provides a rich query |
| language through the Query Parser.</p> |
| <p>This page |
| provides syntax of Lucene's Query Parser, a lexer which |
| interprets a string into a Lucene Query using JavaCC.</p> |
| <p> |
| Before choosing to use the provided Query Parser, please consider the following: |
| <ol> |
| <li>If you are programmatically generating a query string and then |
| parsing it with the query parser then you should seriously consider building |
| your queries directly with the query API. In other words, the query |
| parser is designed for human-entered text, not for program-generated |
| text.</li> |
| |
| <li>Untokenized fields are best added directly to queries, and not |
| through the query parser. If a field's values are generated programmatically |
| by the application, then so should query clauses for this field. |
| An analyzer, which the query parser uses, is designed to convert human-entered |
| text to terms. Program-generated values, like dates, keywords, etc., |
| should be consistently program-generated.</li> |
| |
| <li>In a query form, fields which are general text should use the query |
| parser. All others, such as date ranges, keywords, etc. are better added |
| directly through the query API. A field with a limit set of values, |
| that can be specified with a pull-down menu should not be added to a |
| query string which is subsequently parsed, but rather added as a |
| TermQuery clause.</li> |
| </ol> |

| <p>A query is broken up into terms and operators. There are two types of terms: Single Terms and Phrases.</p> |
| <p>A Single Term is a single word such as "test" or "hello".</p> |
| <p>A Phrase is a group of words surrounded by double quotes such as "hello dolly".</p> |
| <p>Multiple terms can be combined together with Boolean operators to form a more complex query (see below).</p> |
| <p>Note: The analyzer used to create the index will be used on the terms and phrases in the query string. |
| So it is important to choose an analyzer that will not interfere with the terms used in the query string.</p> |
