Hello Jack, you are right, there is no reason that this possibility is only in Solr, what could use it from the Lucene-API. I just got the old source code from Jan, the author of the old post. When our current change is release I will have a look to the Solr solution and I will try to bring this in some way to the Lucene API as well.
Thank you Willi ________________________________ Von: Jack Krupansky <j...@basetechnology.com> An: java-user@lucene.apache.org; Willi Haase <willi_ha...@yahoo.com> Gesendet: 17:43 Donnerstag, 25.Oktober 2012 Betreff: Re: How to use/create an alias to a field? I almost added that you could create a subclass of the Lucene query parser, as Solr does, and add the aliasing that way. There might/should be field aliasing code in Solr that you could easily apply in Solr. There really isn't a great reason why aliasing is only available in Solr and not in Lucene. But unless you are prepared to hack on the query parser, alias support isn't available in Lucene right now. -- Jack Krupansky -----Original Message----- From: Willi Haase Sent: Thursday, October 25, 2012 11:59 AM To: java-user@lucene.apache.org Subject: Re: How to use/create an alias to a field? Hi Jack Thank you for your help. My problem is, I have only a Lucene setup and can not switch to Solr : ( Cheers Willi ________________________________ Von: Jack Krupansky <j...@basetechnology.com> An: java-user@lucene.apache.org Gesendet: 15:57 Donnerstag, 25.Oktober 2012 Betreff: Re: How to use/create an alias to a field? With edismax in Solr 3.6/4.0 field aliases are supported: "The syntax for aliasing is f.myalias.qf=realfield. A user query for myalias:foo will be queried as realfield:foo."

Hello I am using Lucene 3.4 and I have nearly the same question like Jan in his post: http://mail-archives.apache.org/mod_mbox/lucene-java-user/200801.mbox/%3C4791E482.60900%40gmx.de%3E I could found something helpful in "Lucene in Action" or in the web. What is the recommended way to create an alias to a field? I want be able to use in the searchquery "au:some_name" or "auth:some_name" or "author:some_name", all using the field "author". Many thanks in advance for any help or recommendations Willi : ) --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: java-user-unsubscr...@lucene.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: java-user-h...@lucene.apache.org --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: java-user-unsubscr...@lucene.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: java-user-h...@lucene.apache.org
