NAME

       KinoSearch1::QueryParser::QueryParser - transform a string into a Query object

SYNOPSIS

           my $query_parser = KinoSearch1::QueryParser::QueryParser->new(
               analyzer => $analyzer,
               fields   => [ 'bodytext' ],
           );
           my $query = $query_parser->parse( $query_string );
           my $hits  = $searcher->search( query => $query );

DESCRIPTION

       The QueryParser accepts search strings as input and produces Query objects, suitable for
       feeding into KinoSearch1::Searcher.

   Syntax
       The following constructs are recognized by QueryParser.

       •   Boolean operators 'AND', 'OR', and 'AND NOT'.

       •   Prepented +plus and -minus, indicating that the labeled entity should be either
           required or forbidden -- be it a single word, a phrase, or a parenthetical group.

       •   Logical groups, delimited by parentheses.

       •   Phrases, delimited by double quotes.

       •   Field-specific terms, in the form of "fieldname:termtext".  (The field specified by
           fieldname will be used instead of the QueryParser's default fields).

           A field can also be given to a logical group, in which case it is the same as if the
           field had been prepended onto every term in the group.  For example: "foo:(bar baz)"
           is the same as "foo:bar foo:baz".

METHODS

   new
           my $query_parser = KinoSearch1::QueryParser::QueryParser->new(
               analyzer       => $analyzer,       # required
               fields         => [ 'bodytext' ],  # required
               default_boolop => 'AND',           # default: 'OR'
           );

       Constructor.  Takes hash-style parameters:

       •   analyzer - An object which subclasses KinoSearch1::Analysis::Analyzer.  This must be
           identical to the Analyzer used at index-time, or the results won't match up.

       •   fields - the names of the fields which will be searched against.  Must be supplied as
           an arrayref.

       •   default_field - deprecated. Use "fields" instead.

       •   default_boolop - two possible values: 'AND' and 'OR'.  The default is 'OR', which
           means: return documents which match any of the query terms.  If you want only
           documents which match all of the query terms, set this to 'AND'.

   parse
           my $query = $query_parser->parse( $query_string );

       Turn a query string into a Query object.  Depending on the contents of the query string,
       the returned object could be any one of several subclasses of KinoSearch1::Search::Query.
