find it, its parts and their function. This section is intended for Java developers

Relative to the directory created when you extracted Lucene or retreived it from Subversion, you
|
2002-01-26 11:38:28 -05:00
|
|
|
should see a directory called "src" which in turn contains a directory called "demo".
|
|
|
|
|
This is the root for all of the Lucene demos. Under this directory is org/apache/lucene/demo,
|
|
|
|
|
this is where all the Java sources live.
|
|
|
|
|
</p>
|
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
|
|
|
Within this directory you should see the IndexFiles class we executed earlier. Bring that
|
|
|
|
|
up in vi or your alternative text editor and lets take a look at it.

As we discussed in the previous walkthrough, the IndexFiles class creates a Lucene Index.
|
|
|
|
|
Lets take a look at how it does this.
|
|
|
|
|
</p>
|
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
|
|
|
The first substantial thing the main function does is instantiate an instance
|
|
|
|
|
of IndexWriter. It passes a string called "index" and a new instance of a class called
|
|
|
|
|
"StandardAnalyzer". The "index" string is the name of the directory that all index information
|
|
|
|
|
should be stored in. Because we're not passing any path information, one must assume this
|
2004-10-30 08:16:09 -04:00
|
|
|
will be created as a subdirectory of the current directory (if it does not already exist). On
|
2002-01-26 11:38:28 -05:00
|
|
|
some platforms this may actually result in it being created in other directories (such as
|
|
|
|
|
the user's home directory).
|
|
|
|
|
</p>
|
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
|
|
|
The <b>IndexWriter</b> is the main class responsible for creating indicies. To use it you
|
|
|
|
|
must instantiate it with a path that it can write the index into, if this path does not
|
|
|
|
|
exist it will create it, otherwise it will refresh the index living at that path. You
|
2005-04-22 00:31:17 -04:00
|
|
|
must a also pass an instance of <b>org.apache.lucene.analysis.Analyzer</b>.
|
2002-01-26 11:38:28 -05:00
|
|
|
</p>
|
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
2004-10-30 08:16:09 -04:00
|
|
|
The <b>Analyzer</b>, in this case, the <b>StandardAnalyzer</b> is little more than a standard Java
|
|
|
|
|
Tokenizer, converting all strings to lowercase and filtering out useless words and characters from the index.
|
|
|
|
|
By useless words and characters I mean common language words such as articles (a, an, the, etc.) and other
|
|
|
|
|
strings that would be useless for searching (e.g. <b>'s</b>) . It should be noted that there are different
|
|
|
|
|
rules for every language, and you should use the proper analyzer for each. Lucene currently
|
|
|
|
|
provides Analyzers for English and German, more can be found in the Lucene Sandbox.
|
2002-01-26 11:38:28 -05:00
|
|
|
</p>
|
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
|
|
|
Looking down further in the file, you should see the indexDocs() code. This recursive function
|
|
|
|
|
simply crawls the directories and uses FileDocument to create Document objects. The Document
|
|
|
|
|
is simply a data object to represent the content in the file as well as its creation time and
|
2004-10-30 08:16:09 -04:00
|
|
|
location. These instances are added to the indexWriter. Take a look inside FileDocument. It's
|
2002-01-26 11:38:28 -05:00
|
|
|
not particularly complicated, it just adds fields to the Document.
|
|
|
|
|
</p>
|
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
|
|
|
As you can see there isn't much to creating an index. The devil is in the details. You may also
|
|
|
|
|
wish to examine the other samples in this directory, particularly the IndexHTML class. It is
|
|
|
|
|
a bit more complex but builds upon this example.

The SearchFiles class is quite simple. It primarily collaborates with an IndexSearcher, StandardAnalyzer
|
|
|
|
|
(which is used in the IndexFiles class as well) and a QueryParser. The query parser is constructed
|
|
|
|
|
with an analyzer used to interperate your query in the same way the Index was interperated: finding
|
|
|
|
|
the end of words and removing useless words like 'a', 'an' and 'the'. The Query object contains the
|
|
|
|
|
results from the QueryParser which is passed to the searcher. The searcher results are returned in
|
|
|
|
|
a collection of Documents called "Hits" which is then iterated through and displayed to the user.
