Queries

Token or token prefix queries

• You can search for all documents that contain a term with a specified prefix.
• For example: 'riv*' will match all documents containing river, rivert, rivolta and so on.

Phrase queries

• Phrase queries are specified by enclosing a space separated sequence of terms or term prefixes in double quotes (").
• For example: "rainy season" will match all documents that contain the phrase.
• You can also use prefix terms inside the phrase. "th* se*" will match "The second", "the sense".

Near queries

• A NEAR query is a query that returns documents that contain a two or more nominated terms or phrases within a specified proximity of each other.
• The default proximity is 10.
• A NEAR query is specified by putting the keyword "NEAR" between two phrase, term or prefix queries.
• For example: "world NEAR river" will match "The Indus river valley, site of one of the world's earliest...."
• "price NEAR/6 london" matches documents where no more than 6 terms separate 'price' and 'london'

Boolean operators

• AND - The AND operator is implicit. Searching for two terms will be a AND search by default. Specifying AND inside the search terms will treat AND as a term to be searched
• NOT - Use the unary "-" operator with the basic term and term-prefix queries. Example: "river -boat" will match all documents containing river and no boat.
• OR - Two terms separated by OR operator will be searched inside the documents
