Package org.apache.lucene.search.intervals

Intervals queries

See: Description

Class Summary

Class	Description
IntervalFilter	Wraps an IntervalIterator and passes through those intervals that match the IntervalFilter.accept() function
IntervalIterator	A DocIdSetIterator that also allows iteration over matching intervals in a document.
IntervalQuery	A query that retrieves documents containing intervals returned from an IntervalsSource Static constructor functions for various different sources can be found in the Intervals class
Intervals	Constructor functions for IntervalsSource types These sources implement minimum-interval algorithms taken from the paper Efficient Optimally Lazy Algorithms for Minimal-Interval Semantics
IntervalsSource	A helper class for IntervalQuery that provides an IntervalIterator for a given field and segment Static constructor functions for various different sources can be found in the Intervals class

Package org.apache.lucene.search.intervals Description

Intervals queries

This package contains experimental classes to search over intervals within fields

IntervalsSource

The IntervalsSource class can be used to construct proximity relationships between terms and intervals. They can be built using static methods in the Intervals class

Basic intervals

• Intervals.term(String) — Represents a single term
• Intervals.phrase(java.lang.String...) — Represents a phrase
• Intervals.ordered(org.apache.lucene.search.intervals.IntervalsSource...) — Represents an interval over an ordered set of terms or intervals
• Intervals.unordered(org.apache.lucene.search.intervals.IntervalsSource...) — Represents an interval over an unordered set of terms or intervals
• Intervals.or(org.apache.lucene.search.intervals.IntervalsSource...) — Represents the disjunction of a set of terms or intervals

Filters

• Intervals.maxwidth(int, org.apache.lucene.search.intervals.IntervalsSource) — Filters out intervals that are larger than a set width
• Intervals.containedBy(org.apache.lucene.search.intervals.IntervalsSource, org.apache.lucene.search.intervals.IntervalsSource) — Returns intervals that are contained by another interval
• Intervals.notContainedBy(org.apache.lucene.search.intervals.IntervalsSource, org.apache.lucene.search.intervals.IntervalsSource) — Returns intervals that are *not* contained by another interval
• Intervals.containing(org.apache.lucene.search.intervals.IntervalsSource, org.apache.lucene.search.intervals.IntervalsSource) — Returns intervals that contain another interval
• Intervals.notContaining(org.apache.lucene.search.intervals.IntervalsSource, org.apache.lucene.search.intervals.IntervalsSource) — Returns intervals that do not contain another interval
• Intervals.nonOverlapping(org.apache.lucene.search.intervals.IntervalsSource, org.apache.lucene.search.intervals.IntervalsSource) — Returns intervals that do not overlap with another interval
• Intervals.notWithin(org.apache.lucene.search.intervals.IntervalsSource, int, org.apache.lucene.search.intervals.IntervalsSource) — Returns intervals that do not appear within a set number of positions of another interval

IntervalQuery

An IntervalQuery takes a field name and an IntervalsSource, and matches all documents that contain intervals defined by the source in that field.
