Interface FileIndexingPlugin

All Known Implementing Classes:

DcsDataFileIndexingPlugin, DDSItemMetaMetadataIndexingPlugin, ServletContextFileIndexingPlugin, SessionIndexingPlugin, SimpleFileIndexingPlugin

public interface FileIndexingPlugin

This Interface provides a mechanism for adding custom fields to Lucene index Documents that are being created for a given file. Fields created using this Interface should use a unigue field name namespace prefix to avoid field name conflicts. For information about adding fields, see the Lucene Document javadoc.

To configure one or more Lucene Analyzers to use on a per-field basis for your plugins, provide a properties file within your application's class path named 'FileIndexingPluginLuceneAnalyzers.properties' (used in the DDS, NCS, and DCS Web applications). See PerFieldAnalyzer for details.

Example usage:

private static final String FIELD_NS = "MyMetaMetadata";

public void addFields(File file, Document newDoc, Document existingDoc)
throws Exception{


... code to set up data as needed ...
String recordStatus = myData.getRecordStatus();
newDoc.add(new Field(FIELD_NS + "recordStatus", recordStatus, Field.Store.YES, Field.Index.NOT_ANALYZED));
... add additional fields as needed ...


}
