Re: [dspace-tech] How to implement a broad search on the title field in DSpace 7/8?

You could try the extended dismax query parser. The Extended DisMax (eDismax) Query Parser | Apache Solr Reference Guide 8.11 solr.apache.org It has a different query syntax. My organisation wanted this behaviour too. Config is in the schema.xml file I believe under the search core. You might also be interested in partial contains so for example searching “Teori” matches documents with “Teoria”. I was able to achieve this by using an Edge NGram Tokenizer on the index filter chain.  Tokenizers | Apache Solr Reference Guide 8.11 solr.apache.org -Andrew On 8 Mar 2025, at 6:13 am, Lucas Silveira <lucasangelosilveira2...@gmail.com> wrote:  How to implement a broad search on the title field in DSpace 7/8? Hello everyone! I'm trying to implement a broader search in DSpace 8 using the /discover/search/objects endpoint to filter by title (f.title). Currently, I'm using the contains operator, but I've noticed that it does not return all the expected results. Problem When I search for f.title=Teoria geral dos partidos,contains, it correctly returns an item titled "Teoria geral dos partidos políticos". However, when I search for f.title=Teoria geral dos políticos,contains, no results are found, even though the string is very similar to an existing title. In other words, the search seems to work more like a partial equals than a true "contains" search within the title. What I have tested Switched between /discover/search/objects and /discover/browses/title/items, but both have this limitation. Tried reordering words and removing accents, but no difference. Checked Solr, and the titles appear to be correctly indexed. What do I need? I want to implement a broad search on the title field so that users can find an item even if they don't type the exact title. Some possible solutions: Is there a way to use wildcards (*) within contains? Can I use another operator (fuzzy, wildcard, phrase, etc.) in DSpace searches? If the solution is within Solr configurations, what adjustments should I make? Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!  -- All messages to this mailing list should adhere to the Code of Conduct: https://www.lyrasis.org/about/Pages/Code-of-Conduct.aspx --- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "DSpace Technical Support" group.
