[EP-tech] Antwort: Re: Xapian Search

[martin.braendle at id.uzh.ch]

Hi Josée,

for author searches, don't put the names into double quotes, but into
brackets:

creators_name:(Noyer, Jean-Louis)

For datestamps, I'm not sure how they are indexed; in our case it just
works with years:

date:2014

We have written a search help, http://www.zora.uzh.ch/help/  that details
some Xapian options. Feel free to use what is usable.

Best regards,

Martin

Sorry, I think that I have to make my question more understandable...


We have configured our search this way :


      $c->{search}->{simple} = {
        search_fields => [
                           {
                             id => "q",
                             meta_fields => [
                                "documents",
                                "eprintid",
                                "title",
                                "creators_name",
                                "abstract",
                                "datestamp",
                                                          …


So all these fields should be indexed by Xapian


We have reloaded the config (epadmin), restarted Apache and reindexed our
eprints.


But now we get two problems :


            1. We can't search by datestamp.


                        We tried "datestamp:2015-08-*",
"datestamp:2015/08/*", "datestamp:201508*", ...
                        Nothing seems to work. We always get empty results.


                        Do you know what is the right syntax to do a Xapian
search based in this field ?


            2. We can't search by creators_name


                        We can search by last name : creators_name:"Noyer"
                        Or by first name : creators_name:"Jean-Louis"


                        But we can't combine firsrt and last name :
                        creators_name:"Noyer Jean-Louis" or
creators_name:"Noyer, Jean-Louis"
                        both  give and empty result set.


                        Do you know how to do such a search using both
first and last name ?



Thank you for your help

      Have you restarted the webserver?  Changes to the .pl files do not
      load automatically when the file changes.  You'll need to reload the
      configuration (/<eprints_root>/bin/epadmin reload [repositoryid]) or
      restart apache before the changes will be visible at the front end.

            Hello,
            I have two questions on research Xapian :

            1.   How query the fields : datestamp ?

            2.   How query the fields :  creators_name (name_family with
            name_given ) ?



            We added fields (datestamp and creators_name)  in the file
            cfg.d/eprints_search_simple.pl and reindexed the database.
            $c->{search}->{simple} =
            {
                                search_fields => [
                                                     {
                                                                         id
            => "q",

            meta_fields => [
            "documents",
            "eprintid",
            "title",
            "creators_name",
            "abstract",
            "datestamp",
            …
