[jsword-devel] Lucene Indexes

[Mullins, Steven]

I have jsword indexing the lexical forms and the robinson codes
for the MorphGNT module.  The syntax is:

rob:n-nsm && lex:?????

This will search for all verses with the lexical form "?????"
and the robinson morphological code n-nsm.  However, "?????"
can be anywhere in the verse and the "n-nsm" tag can apply to
any word in the verse.  I'd like to restrict the search so that
the robinsons search applies only to a particular word.  For
example:

(lex:????? WITH rob:n-nsm)
Translation: Search all words with lexical form "?????", which 
also has a robinson's code of "n-nsm".  

I don't know how or if Lucene establishes the relationship between
fields.  Is there a way to establish a link between the <content>
field and <lex> and <rob> field? 

Perhaps this is already done, but if so, I do not know the syntax
to employ it.

Thanks,

Steve

I think it's worth more than a couple of cents!

One of the thing's that we have on our todo list (Jira's down 
indefinitely, so don't bother looking) is to create a Strong's index 
that could be used for any module. So if anyone ever had strong:(H3068 
AND H3069) in a search, they would find the verse in their favorite text.

We could do something similar with the analysis of MorphGNT.

BTW, I welcome contributions as I'll be focusing on RTL issues, 
translations into other languages and Bookmarks.
