Search syntaxΒΆ
Searches in lesana use the human readable query string format defined by xapian.
The simplest search is just a list of terms: e.g. searching for
thing object
will find entries where either thing
or object
is present in one of the fields with free
indexing.
It is also possible to specify that a term must be in one specific
field: the syntax for this is the name of the field follwed by :
and
the term, e.g. name:object
will search for entries with the term
object
in the name
field.
Search queries can of course include the usual logical operators
AND
, OR
and NOT
.
More modifiers are available; see the Query Parser documentation from xapian for details.
