NAME

Lucy::Search::PhraseQuery - Query matching an ordered list of terms.

SYNOPSIS

    my $phrase_query = Lucy::Search::PhraseQuery->new( 
        field => 'content',
        terms => [qw( the who )],
    );
    my $hits = $searcher->hits( query => $phrase_query );

DESCRIPTION

PhraseQuery is a subclass of Query for matching against an ordered sequence of terms.

CONSTRUCTORS

new

    my $phrase_query = Lucy::Search::PhraseQuery->new(
        field => $field,  # required
        terms => $terms,  # required
    );

Create a new PhraseQuery.

  • field - The field that the phrase must occur in.

  • terms - The ordered array of terms that must match.

METHODS

get_field

    my $string = $phrase_query->get_field();

Accessor for object’s field attribute.

get_terms

    my $arrayref = $phrase_query->get_terms();

Accessor for object’s array of terms.

make_compiler

    my $compiler = $phrase_query->make_compiler(
        searcher    => $searcher,     # required
        boost       => $boost,        # required
        subordinate => $subordinate,  # default: false
    );

Abstract factory method returning a Compiler derived from this Query.

  • searcher - A Searcher.

  • boost - A scoring multiplier.

  • subordinate - Indicates whether the Query is a subquery (as opposed to a top-level query). If false, the implementation must invoke normalize() on the newly minted Compiler object before returning it.
