Say I have indexed the following strings: 1. "cool gaming laptop" 2. "cool gaming lappy" 3. "gaming laptop cool"
Now when I search with a query say "cool gaming computer", I want string 1 and 2 to appear on top (where search terms are closer to each other) followed by 3. I can use a Term query to search but, the problem is that word proximity does not come into picture. All 3 document get an even score. The behaviour that I want is documents that have "cool" and "gaming" and "computer" (these words might be present or not in the indexed document) as close to each other as possible should get a higher score. I can use a Phrase query so that proximity of search terms affect scoring but, I do not get any result because string "computer" is not present in any of the indexed documents. Is there a way to achieve the above? -- Cheers, Abhi
