[opencms-dev] Index an XmlContent element

[Steve Bryan]

Hi Juan

The syntax for mapping elements is slightly strange when you only have one
element (and it doesn't seem to be documented anywhere).

Try <mapping type="item">ElementName[0]</mapping>

ie with '[0]' following the element name. This is actually quite powerful
because it allows you to map multiple element values to one Lucene field
when there are repeating elements, eg

<mapping type="item">ElementName[0]</mapping>
<mapping type="item">ElementName[1]</mapping>
<mapping type="item">ElementName[2]</mapping>

Hope that works for you

Steve

Hi guys, 

 

I want to perform a search using Lucene engine in a custom xmlcontent
created by my own. I want to search only in one field of this content, and I
have tried all the possible configurations in the Search Management tools at
the Admin View. I thouth that I must configure it as this at
opencms-search.xml:

 

<fieldconfiguration>

<name>XmlContentName</name>

<fields>

<field name="ElementName" store="false" index="true">

<mapping type="item">ElementName</mapping>

</field>

</fields>

</fieldconfiguration>

 

Then I assigned this field configuration to an index:

 

<index>

<name>IndexXmlContentName </name>

<rebuild>auto</rebuild>

<project>Online</project>

<locale>es</locale>

<configuration>XmlContentName</configuration>

<sources>

<source>CustomSource</source>

</sources>

</index>

 

And rebuild the index. Then I try to find a Term that appears in
ElementName, at least, on one file of this content type, and no results have
been returned. If I change the mapping type to content, then it returns all
the files that contains the term at any content?s item, so I think the
search is working ok but I have the problem at the field configuration. 

 

Any suggestion?

 

Thanks!
