David, although 3) would work, I think the easiest way to do it is to write a custom constraint that constructs a stemmed word query. There are good instructions for implementing a custom constraint in the Search Developer's Guide. I will say that there were some conveniences added (I think in 4.2) that made it easier to write custom constraints than in 4.1, so if you have the option of moving to a more recent version, that's worth considering.

(LNG-DAY) [[email protected]] Sent: Wednesday, October 17, 2012 9:08 AM To: MarkLogic Developer Discussion Subject: Re: [MarkLogic Dev General] Query on multiple language using search api (Geert Josten) Here’s a similar situation: Using 4.1, I have an unstemmed database. However the user searching it occasionally know she/he wants to search for the stemmed version of one of their terms. The “term” option applies to all terms in a document and the constraint would only apply to specific element(s) for value or word. I want to do something like allow: blue AND green AND stemmed:ran That is, I want to search the entire document for unstemmed versions of “blue” and “green” and the stemmed version of “ran.” However, I’m not really seeing how to construct that constraint without simply listing all elements of a document in the constraint. <options xmlns="http://marklogic.com/appservices/search";> <constraint name="stemmed"> <word> <term-option>stemmed</term-option> <element name="my-element1"/> </word> <word> <term-option>stemmed</term-option> <element name="my-element2"/> </word> … </constraint> Which actually appears to not be allowed – you can only get one element in word or only one word in a constraint (even though check-options gives no error). When I try this I get: [1.0-ml] XDMP-ARGTYPE: (err:XPTY0004) fn:QName("", (xs:NCName("my-element1"), xs:NCName("my-element2"))) -- arg2 is not of type xs:string So, 1) Does this even work, perhaps in a later version of ML? 2) Is there a better/easier way to do what I’m trying to do? 3) I suppose I could create a field that is made up of every element then use that field in the constraint?

Hi Tim, There is a grammar option in search:search options, but haven't looked into that myself yet. Perhaps the documentation can make clear whether you can use that or not. Alternative is to pre-process the search query yourself. You can try to tackle it with regex, but it might be more fun to write a grammar for it and use the handy site maintained by Gunther Rademacher to generate XQuery code out of it: http://www.bottlecaps.de/rex/ Kind regards, Geert -----Oorspronkelijk bericht----- Van: [email protected]<mailto:[email protected]> [mailto:[email protected]<mailto:[email protected]>] Namens Tim Finney Verzonden: woensdag 15 augustus 2012 23:29 Aan: [email protected]<mailto:[email protected]> Onderwerp: [MarkLogic Dev General] Natural language version of a query?
