Display search result context (Google like)

Hello!I'm performing searches on the repository with the API (through WS).I would like to display results like Google, including snippet of the documents where it matched.- Is this information given by Lucene?- If yes, I guess I could enhance the Alfresco repository API so that the information is av

Hi !
I am also interested by this functionality.
The resume and highlighting keyword on the result is on the todo list of Alfresco.
So I guess once it will be available on alfresco, it will be also available via webservices. But I don't know when…
Cheers,
Samuel

Hi Sam!

I couldn't wait till these feature will be incorportated into Alfresco, so I have implemented the code below. This code is part of a custom web application that accesses the Alfresco repository through web services. The code below needs two parameter:
- value: the content of your file (the text you want to highlight)
- queryString: the query from the user

You will need to include the Lucene libraries into your project: lucene-core.jar, lucene-highlighter.jar, lucene-analyzers.jar.

Hope it helps.

   private static final String HIGH_LIGHT_OPEN = "<b style=\"color:black;background-color:#ffff66\">";
   private static final String HIGH_LIGHT_CLOSE = "</b>";
   
   public static String highLight(String value, String queryString) throws IOException {
      
      if (!(value != null && value.trim().length()>0 && queryString !=null && queryString.trim().length()>0)){
         return value;
      }
      TermQuery query = new TermQuery(new Term("h", queryString));
      QueryScorer scorer = new QueryScorer(query);
      SimpleHTMLFormatter formatter = new 
      SimpleHTMLFormatter(HIGH_LIGHT_OPEN, HIGH_LIGHT_CLOSE);
      Highlighter highlighter = new Highlighter(formatter, scorer);
      Fragmenter fragmenter = new SimpleFragmenter(200);
      highlighter.setTextFragmenter(fragmenter);
      TokenStream tokenStream = new CJKAnalyzer().tokenStream("h",new StringReader(value));
      return highlighter.getBestFragments(tokenStream, value, 5, "…");
   }‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍

Thanks egabbud !
It's looks simple.
Currently, in my app, I don't need to read the content of the results files, so it's a little heavy just to have the highlighting.
But maybe later 😉
