Class TopScoreDocCollector

java.lang.Object
org.apache.lucene.search.TopDocsCollector<ScoreDoc>
org.apache.lucene.search.TopScoreDocCollector
All Implemented Interfaces:
Collector
public abstract class TopScoreDocCollector extends TopDocsCollector<ScoreDoc>
A Collector implementation that collects the top-scoring hits, returning them as a TopDocs. This is used by IndexSearcher to implement TopDocs-based search. Hits are sorted by score descending and then (when the scores are tied) docID ascending. When you create an instance of this collector you should know in advance whether documents are going to be collected in doc Id order or not.

NOTE: The values Float.NaN and Float.NEGATIVE_INFINITY are not valid scores. This collector will not properly collect hits with such scores.

  • Method Details

    • create

      public static TopScoreDocCollector create(int numHits, int totalHitsThreshold)
      Creates a new TopScoreDocCollector given the number of hits to collect and the number of hits to count accurately.

      NOTE: If the total hit count of the top docs is less than or exactly totalHitsThreshold then this value is accurate. On the other hand, if the TopDocs.totalHits value is greater than totalHitsThreshold then its value is a lower bound of the hit count. A value of Integer.MAX_VALUE will make the hit count accurate but will also likely make query processing slower.

      NOTE: The instances returned by this method pre-allocate a full array of length numHits, and fill the array with sentinel objects.

    • create

      public static TopScoreDocCollector create(int numHits, ScoreDoc after, int totalHitsThreshold)
      Creates a new TopScoreDocCollector given the number of hits to collect, the bottom of the previous page, and the number of hits to count accurately.

      NOTE: If the total hit count of the top docs is less than or exactly totalHitsThreshold then this value is accurate. On the other hand, if the TopDocs.totalHits value is greater than totalHitsThreshold then its value is a lower bound of the hit count. A value of Integer.MAX_VALUE will make the hit count accurate but will also likely make query processing slower.

      NOTE: The instances returned by this method pre-allocate a full array of length numHits, and fill the array with sentinel objects.

    • createSharedManager

      public static CollectorManager<TopScoreDocCollector,TopDocs> createSharedManager(int numHits, ScoreDoc after, int totalHitsThreshold)
      Create a CollectorManager which uses a shared hit counter to maintain number of hits and a shared MaxScoreAccumulator to propagate the minimum score accross segments

    • newTopDocs

      protected TopDocs newTopDocs(ScoreDoc[] results, int start)
      Description copied from class: TopDocsCollector
      Returns a TopDocs instance containing the given results. If results is null it means there are no results to return, either because there were 0 calls to collect() or because the arguments to topDocs were invalid.
      Overrides:
      newTopDocs in class TopDocsCollector<ScoreDoc>

    • scoreMode

      public ScoreMode scoreMode()
      Description copied from interface: Collector
      Indicates what features are required from the scorer.
