Ah OK. I didn't have a good view of query parsing vs query generation. Thanks for clearing this up.
So it means that searching in a tokenized and non-tokenized field simultaneously is not possible when I want - the expression parsed as phrase for the non-tokenized field - the expression parsed as multiple tokens for the tokenized field ? If possible, I'd like to avoid writing my own query parser. -----Original Message----- From: Jack Krupansky [mailto:j...@basetechnology.com] Sent: Thursday 28 February 2013 05:05 To: solr-user@lucene.apache.org Subject: Re: Search in String and Text_en fields simultaneously with edismax Query text is always "tokenized" (more properly, "parsed"), unless the text is enclosed in quotes or spaces are escaped with backslash. Try: q=valueadd:"test . test2" or q=valueadd:test\ .\ test2 Parentheses simply provide grouping, either to control boolean operator evaluation order or to apply a field name to a sequence of query tokens (as you have written.) The analyzer or field type is only consulted when the query is generated, not while it is being parsed. The same identical parsing rules apply to both tokenized and non-tokenized fields. What a field type's analyzer does with its value is irrelevant to query parsing. -- Jack Krupansky -----Original Message----- From: Burgmans, Tom Sent: Thursday, February 28, 2013 10:48 AM To: solr-user@lucene.apache.org Subject: Search in String and Text_en fields simultaneously with edismax I have a field "valueadd" of type String and field "body" of type text_en (with tokenization and linguistic processing). When I search with edismax against field valueadd like this: q=valueadd:(test . test2) I see that the parsed query is (valueadd:test valueadd:. valueadd:test2)~3 Why not (valueadd:test . test2) ? It looks like the query is tokenized while field type String doesn't have a tokenizer configured. I know I could construct my query as: q=valueadd:"test . test2" in which case the phrase is searched as a whole against valueadd. But why doesn't that happen without quotes? The reason I ask: For a simultaneous search in multiple fields I like to include field valueadd in the qf parameter which contains String and text_en fields, like: &qf=valueadd body How can I search both fields simultaneously without duplicating search terms, while the query is (whitespace) tokenized for "body" but search as a phrase for "valueadd"?
