Constructor Details

FSTCompletion

public FSTCompletion(FST<Object> automaton,
 boolean higherWeightsFirst,
 boolean exactFirst)

Constructs an FSTCompletion, specifying higherWeightsFirst and exactFirst.

Parameters:

automaton - Automaton with completions. See FSTCompletionBuilder.

higherWeightsFirst - Return most popular suggestions first. This is the default behavior for this implementation. Setting it to false has no effect (use constant term weights to sort alphabetically only).

exactFirst - Find and push an exact match to the first position of the result list if found.

FSTCompletion

public FSTCompletion(FST<Object> automaton)

Defaults to higher weights first and exact first.

• FSTCompletion(FST, boolean, boolean)

Method Details

lookup

public List<FSTCompletion.Completion> lookup(CharSequence key,
 int num)

Lookup suggestions to key.

Parameters:

key - The prefix to which suggestions should be sought.

num - At most this number of suggestions will be returned.

Returns:

Returns the suggestions, sorted by their approximated weight first (decreasing) and then alphabetically (UTF-8 codepoint order).

getBucketCount

public int getBucketCount()

Returns the bucket count (discretization thresholds).

getBucket

public int getBucket(CharSequence key)

Returns the bucket assigned to a given key (if found) or -1 if no exact match exists.

getFST

public FST<Object> getFST()

Returns the internal automaton.
