All Implemented Interfaces:

QueryNodeProcessor

public class MultiFieldQueryNodeProcessor
extends QueryNodeProcessorImpl

This processor is used to expand terms so the query looks for the same term in different fields. It also boosts a query based on its field.

This processor looks for every FieldableNode contained in the query node tree. If a FieldableNode is found, it checks if there is a StandardQueryConfigHandler.ConfigurationKeys.MULTI_FIELDS defined in the QueryConfigHandler. If there is, the FieldableNode is cloned N times and the clones are added to a BooleanQueryNode together with the original node. N is defined by the number of fields that it will be expanded to. The BooleanQueryNode is returned.

Method Details

postProcessNode

protected QueryNode postProcessNode(QueryNode node)
                             throws QueryNodeException

Description copied from class: QueryNodeProcessorImpl

This method is invoked for every node when walking up the tree.

Specified by:

postProcessNode in class QueryNodeProcessorImpl

Parameters:

node - node the query node to be post-processed

Returns:

a query node

Throws:

QueryNodeException - if something goes wrong during the query node processing

processChildren

protected void processChildren(QueryNode queryTree)
                        throws QueryNodeException

Description copied from class: QueryNodeProcessorImpl

This method is called every time a child is processed.

Overrides:

processChildren in class QueryNodeProcessorImpl

Parameters:

queryTree - the query node child to be processed

Throws:

QueryNodeException - if something goes wrong during the query node processing

preProcessNode

protected QueryNode preProcessNode(QueryNode node)
                            throws QueryNodeException

Description copied from class: QueryNodeProcessorImpl

This method is invoked for every node when walking down the tree.

Specified by:

preProcessNode in class QueryNodeProcessorImpl

Parameters:

node - the query node to be pre-processed

Returns:

a query node

Throws:

QueryNodeException - if something goes wrong during the query node processing

setChildrenOrder

protected List<QueryNode> setChildrenOrder(List<QueryNode> children)
                                    throws QueryNodeException

Description copied from class: QueryNodeProcessorImpl

This method is invoked for every node that has at least on child. It's invoked right before QueryNodeProcessorImpl.postProcessNode(QueryNode) is invoked.

Specified by:

setChildrenOrder in class QueryNodeProcessorImpl

Parameters:

children - the list containing all current node's children

Returns:

a new list containing all children that should be set to the current node

Throws:

QueryNodeException - if something goes wrong during the query node processing
