Search options
The Ask the Expert application uses the SOLR search platform of Apache, which has a great number of built-in search options. A few of them are:
- wildcard search - use a '?' for a single wildcard and a '*' for multiple.
- fuzzy search - use a '~' to perform a approximate search for a certain word or words. For example a search for 'wool~' also returns 'wood' and 'cool'.
- weighed search - use a '^', combined with a number to put more emphasis on a certain word in your search. For example a search for 'wool^4 is a kind of fabric' results in a list where 'wool' is considered to be of more importance.
You can find out more information about the possibilities of the built-in search options of SOLR by visiting their website.
