Brief Search syntax:
Enter terms(s) to search all contents for these terms,
or use 'field:terms' to search on specific field.
- AND,+ between terms to require all terms be matched;
OR to match any term;
NOT,- to exclude terms
- ?,* are wild cards for 1 or many letters
- match "a phrase with double-quotes".
- search numeric ranges with field:[ start TO stop ]
(the [] are required; TO is optional)
- UPPERCASE is required for AND,OR,NOT,TO
- These characters are reserved for use by the query parser:
+ - & | ! ( ) { } [ ] ^ " ~ * ? : \
To match these in a search term, precede
them with the '\' escape character, or use the '?' single wild character.
Examples:
The
query syntax
supported is that of the Lucene project
in common with other search systems.
A tutorial presentation from BIND,
which also uses Lucene, is
here.
