: Is there a way to do truncation with DisMax? : : Just being able to search for (photo*) would be helpful in quite a few : places. : I'm afraid i'm not understanding your question ... what do you mean by : "truncation" ? ... your example: (photo*) seems to be asking about : a prefix or wildcard type search, which might match photomat, : photographer, photoaaaaaaaaaaa, etc... is that what you're asking about? : there is no way at the moment to do prefix or wildcard searches ... but : off the top of my head i think it might be fairly easy - there is a : partical escaping that happens to escape all QueryParser meta characters : except + and - .. we could probably make that configurable so "*" was left : alone as well. ... i think there would need to be some additions to the : DisjunctionMaxQueryParser to loop over the aliased fields too though. This is exactly what I am thinking about, I used the wrong term, I was thinking wildcard and wrote truncation... doah. -Hoss
