Class ExternalRefSorter

java.lang.Object

org.apache.lucene.search.suggest.fst.ExternalRefSorter

All Implemented Interfaces:

Closeable, AutoCloseable, BytesRefSorter

public class ExternalRefSorter
extends Object
implements BytesRefSorter, Closeable

An implementation of a BytesRefSorter that allows appending BytesRefs to an OfflineSorter and returns a Closeable ExternalRefSorter.ByteSequenceIterator that iterates over sequences stored on disk.

WARNING: This API is experimental and might change in incompatible ways in the next release.

NOTE: This API is for internal purposes only and might change in incompatible ways in the next release.

Constructor Detail

ExternalRefSorter

public ExternalRefSorter(OfflineSorter sorter)
                  throws IOException

Will buffer all sequences to a temporary file and then sort (all on-disk).

Throws:

IOException

Method Detail

add

public void add(BytesRef utf8)
         throws IOException

Description copied from interface: BytesRefSorter

Adds a single suggestion entry (possibly compound with its bucket).

Specified by:

add in interface BytesRefSorter

Throws:

IOException - If an I/O exception occurs.

iterator

public org.apache.lucene.search.suggest.fst.ExternalRefSorter.ByteSequenceIterator iterator()
                                                                                     throws IOException

Description copied from interface: BytesRefSorter

Sorts the entries added in BytesRefSorter.add(BytesRef) and returns an iterator over all sorted entries.

Specified by:

iterator in interface BytesRefSorter

Returns:

Returns a ExternalRefSorter.ByteSequenceIterator that implements BytesRefIterator but is also Closeable, ensuring any temporary resources are cleaned up if the iterator is either exhausted or closed.

Throws:

IOException - If an I/O exception occurs.

close

public void close()
           throws IOException

Close the writer and remove any temporary files.

Specified by:

close in interface AutoCloseable

Specified by:

close in interface Closeable

Throws:

IOException

getComparator

public Comparator<BytesRef> getComparator()

Description copied from interface: BytesRefSorter

Comparator used to determine the sort order of entries.

Specified by:

getComparator in interface BytesRefSorter

Returns:

Return the Comparator of the OfflineSorter used to sort byte sequences.
