Class ParallelReader

java.lang.Object
  extended by org.apache.lucene.index.IndexReader
      extended by org.apache.lucene.index.ParallelReader
All Implemented Interfaces:
Closeable, Cloneable

public class ParallelReader
extends IndexReader

An IndexReader which reads multiple, parallel indexes. Each index added must have the same number of documents, but typically each contains different fields. Each document contains the union of the fields of all documents with the same document number. When searching, matches for a query term are from the first index added that has the field.

This is useful, e.g., with collections that have large fields which change rarely and small fields that change more frequently. The smaller fields may be re-indexed in a new index and both indexes may be searched together.

Warning: It is up to you to make sure all indexes are created and modified the same way. For example, if you add documents to one index, you need to add the same documents in the same order to the other indexes. Failure to do so will result in undefined behavior.

Constructor Detail

ParallelReader

public ParallelReader()
               throws IOException
Construct a ParallelReader.

Note that all subreaders are closed if this ParallelReader is closed.

Throws:
IOException

ParallelReader

public ParallelReader(boolean closeSubReaders)
               throws IOException
Construct a ParallelReader.

Parameters:
closeSubReaders - indicates whether the subreaders should be closed when this ParallelReader is closed
Throws:
IOException
Method Detail

add

public void add(IndexReader reader)
         throws IOException
Add an IndexReader.

Throws:
IOException - if there is a low-level IO error

add

public void add(IndexReader reader,
                boolean ignoreStoredFields)
         throws IOException
Add an IndexReader whose stored fields will not be returned. This can accelerate search when stored fields are only needed from a subset of the IndexReaders.

Throws:
IllegalArgumentException - if not all indexes contain the same number of documents
IllegalArgumentException - if not all indexes have the same value of IndexReader.maxDoc()
IOException - if there is a low-level IO error

clone

public Object clone()
Description copied from class: IndexReader
Efficiently clones the IndexReader (sharing most internal state).

On cloning a reader with pending changes (deletions, norms), the original reader transfers its write lock to the cloned reader. This means only the cloned reader may make further changes to the index, and commit the changes to the index on close, but the old reader still reflects all changes made up until it was cloned.

Like IndexReader.reopen(), it's safe to make changes to either the original or the cloned reader: all shared mutable state obeys "copy on write" semantics to ensure the changes are not seen by other readers.

Overrides:
clone in class IndexReader

reopen

public IndexReader reopen()
                   throws CorruptIndexException,
                          IOException
Tries to reopen the subreaders.
If one or more subreaders could be re-opened (i. e. subReader.reopen() returned a new instance != subReader), then a new ParallelReader instance is returned, otherwise this instance is returned.

A re-opened instance might share one or more subreaders with the old instance. Index modification operations result in undefined behavior when performed before the old instance is closed. (see IndexReader.reopen()).

If subreaders are shared, then the reference count of those readers is increased to ensure that the subreaders remain open until the last referring reader is closed.

Overrides:
reopen in class IndexReader
Throws:
CorruptIndexException - if the index is corrupt
IOException - if there is a low-level IO error

doReopen

protected IndexReader doReopen(boolean doClone)
                        throws CorruptIndexException,
                               IOException
Throws:

IOException

numDocs

Description copied from class: IndexReader
Returns the number of documents in this index.

Specified by:
numDocs in class IndexReader

maxDoc

public int maxDoc()
Description copied from class: IndexReader
Returns one greater than the largest possible document number. This may be used to, e.g., determine how big to allocate an array which will have an element for every document number in an index.

Specified by:
maxDoc in class IndexReader

hasDeletions

public boolean hasDeletions()
Description copied from class: IndexReader
Returns true if any documents have been deleted

Specified by:
hasDeletions in class IndexReader

isDeleted

public boolean isDeleted(int n)
Description copied from class: IndexReader
Returns true if document n has been deleted

Specified by:
isDeleted in class IndexReader

doDelete

protected void doDelete(int n)
                 throws CorruptIndexException,
                        IOException
Description copied from class: IndexReader
Implements deletion of the document numbered docNum. Applications should call IndexReader.deleteDocument(int) or IndexReader.deleteDocuments(Term).

Specified by:
doDelete in class IndexReader
Throws:
CorruptIndexException
IOException

doUndeleteAll

protected void doUndeleteAll()
                      throws CorruptIndexException,
                             IOException
Description copied from class: IndexReader
Implements actual undeleteAll() in subclass.

Specified by:

Throws:
CorruptIndexException
IOException

document

public Document document(int n,
                         FieldSelector fieldSelector)
                  throws CorruptIndexException,
                         IOException
Description copied from class: IndexReader
Get the Document at the n th position. The FieldSelector may be used to determine what Fields to load and how they should be loaded. NOTE: If this Reader (more specifically, the underlying FieldsReader) is closed before the lazy Field is loaded an exception may be thrown. If you want the value of a lazy Field to be available after closing you must explicitly load it or fetch the Document again with a new loader.

NOTE: for performance reasons, this method does not check if the requested document is deleted, and therefore asking for a deleted document may yield unspecified results. Usually this is not required, however you can call IndexReader.isDeleted(int) with the requested document ID to verify the document is not deleted.

Specified by:
document in class IndexReader
Parameters:
n - Get the document at the nth position
fieldSelector - The FieldSelector to use to determine what Fields should be loaded on the Document. May be null, in which case all Fields will be loaded.
Returns:
The stored fields of the Document at the nth position
Throws:
CorruptIndexException - if the index is corrupt
IOException - if there is a low-level IO error

Each vector contains terms and frequencies for all terms in a given vectorized field. If no such fields existed, the method returns null. The term vectors that are returned may either be of type TermFreqVector or of type TermPositionVector if positions or offsets have been stored.

Specified by:
getTermFreqVectors in class IndexReader
Parameters:
n - document for which term frequency vectors are returned
Returns:
array of term frequency vectors. May be null if no term vectors have been stored for the specified document.

Return a term frequency vector for the specified document and field. The returned vector contains terms and frequencies for the terms in the specified field of this document, if the field had the storeTermVector flag set.

Specified by:
getTermFreqVector in class IndexReader
Parameters:
n - document for which the term frequency vector is returned
field - field for which the term frequency vector is returned.

public TermEnum terms()
               throws IOException
Description copied from class: IndexReader
Returns an enumeration of all the terms in the index. The enumeration is ordered by Term.compareTo(). Each term is greater than all that precede it in the enumeration.

This positional information facilitates phrase and proximity searching.

The enumeration is ordered by document number. Each document number is greater than all that precede it in the enumeration.

Overrides:
termPositions in class IndexReader
Throws:
IOException - if there is a low-level IO error
