          org.apache.lucene.search.TermRangeFilter

public class TermRangeFilter
extends MultiTermQueryWrapperFilter<TermRangeQuery>

A Filter that restricts search results to a range of term values in a given field.

This filter matches the documents looking for terms that fall into the supplied range according to Byte.compareTo(Byte), It is not intended for numerical ranges; use NumericRangeFilter instead.

If you construct a large number of range filters with different ranges but on the same field, FieldCacheRangeFilter may have significantly better performance.

Constructor Detail

TermRangeFilter

public TermRangeFilter(String fieldName,
                       BytesRef lowerTerm,
                       BytesRef upperTerm,
                       boolean includeLower,
                       boolean includeUpper)

Parameters:

fieldName - The field this range applies to

lowerTerm - The lower bound on this range

upperTerm - The upper bound on this range

includeLower - Does this range include the lower bound?

includeUpper - Does this range include the upper bound?

Throws:

IllegalArgumentException - if both terms are null or if lowerTerm is null and includeLower is true (similar for upperTerm and includeUpper)

Factory that creates a new TermRangeFilter using Strings for term text.

Less

public static TermRangeFilter Less(String fieldName,
                                   BytesRef upperTerm)

Constructs a filter for field fieldName matching less than or equal to upperTerm.

More

public static TermRangeFilter More(String fieldName,
                                   BytesRef lowerTerm)

Constructs a filter for field fieldName matching greater than or equal to lowerTerm.
