ASF subversion and git services commented on LUCENE-8229: --------------------------------------------------------- Commit 502fd4bf12b8860b8eea504a96ad1b49dd52938c in lucene-solr's branch refs/heads/branch_7x from [~romseygeek] [ https://git-wip-us.apache.org/repos/asf?p=lucene-solr.git;h=502fd4b ] LUCENE-8229: Add Weight.matches() to iterate over match positions > Add a method to Weight to retrieve matches for a single document > ---------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: LUCENE-8229 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LUCENE-8229 > Project: Lucene - Core > Issue Type: New Feature > Reporter: Alan Woodward > Assignee: Alan Woodward > Priority: Major > Attachments: LUCENE-8229.patch > > Time Spent: 5h 20m > Remaining Estimate: 0h > > The ability to find out exactly what a query has matched on is a fairly > frequent feature request, and would also make highlighters much easier to > implement. There have been a few attempts at doing this, including adding > positions to Scorers, or re-writing queries as Spans, but these all either > compromise general performance or involve up-front knowledge of all queries. > Instead, I propose adding a method to Weight that exposes an iterator over > matches in a particular document and field. It should be used in a similar > manner to explain() - ie, just for TopDocs, not as part of the scoring loop, > which relieves some of the pressure on performance. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v7.6.3#76005) --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: dev-unsubscr...@lucene.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: dev-h...@lucene.apache.org
