Class JavascriptCompiler

java.lang.Object

org.apache.lucene.expressions.js.JavascriptCompiler

public class JavascriptCompiler
extends Object

An expression compiler for javascript expressions.

Example:

   Expression foo = JavascriptCompiler.compile("((0.3*popularity)/10.0)+(0.7*score)");
 

See the package documentation for the supported syntax and default functions.

You can compile with an alternate set of functions via compile(String, Map, ClassLoader). For example:

   Map<String,Method> functions = new HashMap<>();
   // add all the default functions
   functions.putAll(JavascriptCompiler.DEFAULT_FUNCTIONS);
   // add cbrt()
   functions.put("cbrt", Math.class.getMethod("cbrt", double.class));
   // call compile with customized function map
   Expression foo = JavascriptCompiler.compile("cbrt(score)+ln(popularity)", 
                                               functions, 
                                               getClass().getClassLoader());
