I want to give more weight to some terms in the document. Like title of the book should be given more weight than the contents. And we are testing over a wide varieties of lucene queries, with quotes, w/o quotes, phrase, span
etc.

If the whole title is important, just boost the Title field.



As our system will be expecting more number of queries that contain nouns and documents in which that term in heading or title or in bold should be
given higher score.

But this payload thing is not supporting us fully. As it is only working for single term queries or boolean term queries. It would also be good if it supports phrase queries also, as using closeness of terms for scoring is
quite important for us.

Do you've any suggestions?

Could you get by using just field boosts?

As for phrase payload queries, I agree they would be nice to have. Only way they are getting in is if someone donates a patch. I can review it if you can produce it, but don't have time at the moment to produce it.

Not directly, I don't think. Mark Miller contributed some highlighting code that converts phrase queries to SpanNearQueries, I believe, but this isn't general purpose. We probably need a QueryParser that produces SpanQueries instead of regular Queries, I suppose, but they aren't always
1-1.  Ideally, there would be no perf. penalty for SpanQueries and
everything would be a span query, but until someone figures out that magic,
I don't know.

What is it that you are trying to do?

Thanks Grant the presentation, it was very useful.

Can payload work for queries other than Term queries and Span queries? Or
is
there any function to convert Query into span query?

Thanks

Basically, the payload allows you to associate an arbitrary byte array
with
1 or more terms.

Hi all,


Has anyone used the payload functionality in Lucene? I would really appreciate if someone can provide an explain using a code or something.

Thanks,
Anshul
