How to specify two Fields in Lucene QueryParser?

In Lucene, you can specify two fields in a query using the Lucene QueryParser. To search for terms in two specific fields, you can construct a query using the syntax field1:term1 AND field2:term2. This will perform a Boolean AND search, where both term1 and term2 must match in their respective fields.

Here's an example of how you can use the Lucene QueryParser to specify two fields in a query:

import org.apache.lucene.analysis.standard.StandardAnalyzer; import org.apache.lucene.queryparser.classic.QueryParser; import org.apache.lucene.search.Query; import org.apache.lucene.util.Version; public class LuceneQueryExample { public static void main(String[] args) throws Exception { // Create an instance of the Lucene QueryParser StandardAnalyzer analyzer = new StandardAnalyzer(); QueryParser parser = new QueryParser("content", analyzer); // Specify the query with two fields and terms String queryString = "title:Lucene AND author:John"; // Parse the query Query query = parser.parse(queryString); // Perform the search using the query // (In a real application, you would perform the search against an index) System.out.println("Parsed Query: " + query.toString()); } }

In the above example:

  1. We create an instance of the QueryParser and specify the default field to search in (in this case, "content"). The default field is used when a field is not explicitly specified in the query.

  2. We construct a query string "title:Lucene AND author:John" where we specify two fields ("title" and "author") along with their respective search terms ("Lucene" and "John").

  3. We parse the query string using the parser.parse(queryString) method, which returns a Lucene Query object.

  4. Finally, we print the parsed query, which should display the Boolean query title:Lucene AND author:John.

Please note that in a real application, you would use the Query object to search against a Lucene index to retrieve matching documents. The example provided here focuses on constructing the query with two fields using the Lucene QueryParser.
