/**
* Unicode collation support.
*
* Collation converts each token into its binary CollationKey
* using the provided Collator, allowing it to be stored as an index term.
*
*
* Use Cases
*
*
* -
* Efficient sorting of terms in languages that use non-Unicode character
* orderings. (Lucene Sort using a Locale can be very slow.)
*
* -
* Efficient range queries over fields that contain terms in languages that
* use non-Unicode character orderings. (Range queries using a Locale can be
* very slow.)
*
* -
* Effective Locale-specific normalization (case differences, diacritics, etc.).
* ({@link org.apache.lucene.analysis.LowerCaseFilter} and
* {@link org.apache.lucene.analysis.miscellaneous.ASCIIFoldingFilter} provide these services
* in a generic way that doesn't take into account locale-specific needs.)
*
*
*
* Example Usages
*
* Farsi Range Queries
*
* // "fa" Locale is not supported by Sun JDK 1.4 or 1.5
* Collator collator = Collator.getInstance(new Locale("ar"));
* CollationKeyAnalyzer analyzer = new CollationKeyAnalyzer(collator);
* Path dirPath = Files.createTempDirectory("tempIndex");
* Directory dir = FSDirectory.open(dirPath);
* IndexWriter writer = new IndexWriter(dir, new IndexWriterConfig(analyzer));
* Document doc = new Document();
* doc.add(new TextField("content", "\u0633\u0627\u0628", Field.Store.YES));
* writer.addDocument(doc);
* writer.close();
* IndexReader ir = DirectoryReader.open(dir);
* IndexSearcher is = new IndexSearcher(ir);
*
* QueryParser aqp = new QueryParser("content", analyzer);
* aqp.setAnalyzeRangeTerms(true);
*
* // Unicode order would include U+0633 in [ U+062F - U+0698 ], but Farsi
* // orders the U+0698 character before the U+0633 character, so the single
* // indexed Term above should NOT be returned by a ConstantScoreRangeQuery
* // with a Farsi Collator (or an Arabic one for the case when Farsi is not
* // supported).
* ScoreDoc[] result
* = is.search(aqp.parse("[ \u062F TO \u0698 ]"), null, 1000).scoreDocs;
* assertEquals("The index Term should not be included.", 0, result.length);
*
*
* Danish Sorting
*
* Analyzer analyzer
* = new CollationKeyAnalyzer(Collator.getInstance(new Locale("da", "dk")));
* Path dirPath = Files.createTempDirectory("tempIndex");
* Directory dir = FSDirectory.open(dirPath);
* IndexWriter writer = new IndexWriter(dir, new IndexWriterConfig(analyzer));
* String[] tracer = new String[] { "A", "B", "C", "D", "E" };
* String[] data = new String[] { "HAT", "HUT", "H\u00C5T", "H\u00D8T", "HOT" };
* String[] sortedTracerOrder = new String[] { "A", "E", "B", "D", "C" };
* for (int i = 0 ; i < data.length ; ++i) {
* Document doc = new Document();
* doc.add(new StoredField("tracer", tracer[i]));
* doc.add(new TextField("contents", data[i], Field.Store.NO));
* writer.addDocument(doc);
* }
* writer.close();
* IndexReader ir = DirectoryReader.open(dir);
* IndexSearcher searcher = new IndexSearcher(ir);
* Sort sort = new Sort();
* sort.setSort(new SortField("contents", SortField.STRING));
* Query query = new MatchAllDocsQuery();
* ScoreDoc[] result = searcher.search(query, null, 1000, sort).scoreDocs;
* for (int i = 0 ; i < result.length ; ++i) {
* Document doc = searcher.doc(result[i].doc);
* assertEquals(sortedTracerOrder[i], doc.getValues("tracer")[0]);
* }
*
*
* Turkish Case Normalization
*
* Collator collator = Collator.getInstance(new Locale("tr", "TR"));
* collator.setStrength(Collator.PRIMARY);
* Analyzer analyzer = new CollationKeyAnalyzer(collator);
* Path dirPath = Files.createTempDirectory("tempIndex");
* Directory dir = FSDirectory.open(dirPath);
* IndexWriter writer = new IndexWriter(dir, new IndexWriterConfig(analyzer));
* Document doc = new Document();
* doc.add(new TextField("contents", "DIGY", Field.Store.NO));
* writer.addDocument(doc);
* writer.close();
* IndexReader ir = DirectoryReader.open(dir);
* IndexSearcher is = new IndexSearcher(ir);
* QueryParser parser = new QueryParser("contents", analyzer);
* Query query = parser.parse("d\u0131gy"); // U+0131: dotless i
* ScoreDoc[] result = is.search(query, null, 1000).scoreDocs;
* assertEquals("The index Term should be included.", 1, result.length);
*
*
* Caveats and Comparisons
*
* WARNING: Make sure you use exactly the same
* Collator at index and query time -- CollationKeys
* are only comparable when produced by
* the same Collator. Since {@link java.text.RuleBasedCollator}s
* are not independently versioned, it is unsafe to search against stored
* CollationKeys unless the following are exactly the same (best
* practice is to store this information with the index and check that they
* remain the same at query time):
*
*
* - JVM vendor
* - JVM version, including patch version
* -
* The language (and country and variant, if specified) of the Locale
* used when constructing the collator via
* {@link java.text.Collator#getInstance(java.util.Locale)}.
*
* -
* The collation strength used - see {@link java.text.Collator#setStrength(int)}
*
*
*
* ICUCollationKeyAnalyzer, available in the icu analysis module,
* uses ICU4J's Collator, which
* makes its version available, thus allowing collation to be versioned
* independently from the JVM. ICUCollationKeyAnalyzer is also
* significantly faster and generates significantly shorter keys than
* CollationKeyAnalyzer. See
* http://site.icu-project.org/charts/collation-icu4j-sun for key
* generation timing and key length comparisons between ICU4J and
* java.text.Collator over several languages.
*
*
* CollationKeys generated by java.text.Collators are
* not compatible with those those generated by ICU Collators. Specifically, if
* you use CollationKeyAnalyzer to generate index terms, do not use
* ICUCollationKeyAnalyzer on the query side, or vice versa.
