This question is better addressed to the user list, rather than this dev list. What you want should not be very difficult, but it is probably easier to get started with Solr rather than using Lucene directly. Off the top of my head, you could add a token filter, possibly along with a custom analyser. This would convert input for both indexing and querying into the respective hashes. Please see http://wiki.apache.org/solr http://wiki.apache.org/solr/AnalyzersTokenizersTokenFilters I would also add that comparing hashes is not necessarily a good idea: What benefit does it get you, and what happens in case of collisions?
