Interface SearchProvider

All Known Implementing Classes:

LuceneSearchProvider

public interface SearchProvider

A SearchProvider in JIRA allows users to run structured searches against JIRA Lucene index as opposed to database (SQL) based queries. All search methods take a Query which defines the criteria of the search, including any sort information.

Method Detail

search

SearchResults search(Query query,
                     com.atlassian.crowd.embedded.api.User searcher,
                     PagerFilter pager)
                     throws SearchException

Search the index, and only return issues that are in the pager's range. Note: that this method returns read only Issue objects, and should not be used where you need the issue for update. Also note that if you are only after the number of search results use searchCount(com.atlassian.query.Query ,User) as it provides better performance.

Parameters:

query - contains the information required to perform the search.

searcher - the user performing the search, which will be used to create a permission filter that filters out any of the results the user is not able to see and will be used to provide context for the search.

pager - Pager filter (use PagerFilter.getUnlimitedFilter() to get all issues).

Returns:

A SearchResults containing the resulting issues.

Throws:

SearchException - thrown if there is a severe problem encountered with lucene when searching (wraps an IOException).

ClauseTooComplexSearchException - if the query or part of the query produces lucene that is too complex to be processed.

Since:

v4.3

Note that this method returns read only Issue objects, and should not be used where you need the issue for update. Also note that if you are only after the number of search results use searchCount(com.atlassian.query.Query ,User) as it provides better performance.

Parameters:

pager - Pager filter (use PagerFilter.getUnlimitedFilter() to get all issues).

andQuery - raw lucene Query to AND with the request.

Returns:

A SearchResults containing the resulting issues.

Throws:

SearchException - thrown if there is a severe problem encountered with lucene when searching (wraps an IOException).

ClauseTooComplexSearchException - if the query or part of the query produces lucene that is too complex to be processed.

Search the index, and only return issues that are in the pager's range while AND'ing the raw lucene query to the generated query from the provided searchQuery, not taking into account any security constraints. Do not use this method, user search(com.atlassian.query.Query , User, com.atlassian.jira.web.bean.PagerFilter, org.apache.lucene.search.Query) instead, this should only be used when performing administrative tasks where you need to know ALL the issues that will be affected. Note that this method returns read only Issue objects, and should not be used where you need the issue for update. Also note that if you are only after the number of search results use searchCount(com.atlassian.query.Query, User) as it provides better performance.

Parameters:

query - contains the information required to perform the search.

searcher - the user performing the search which will be used to provide context for the search.

pager - Pager filter (use PagerFilter.getUnlimitedFilter() to get all issues).

search

void search(Query query,
            com.atlassian.crowd.embedded.api.User searcher,
            org.apache.lucene.search.Collector Collector,
            org.apache.lucene.search.Query andQuery)
            throws SearchException

Run a search based on the provided search criteria and, for each match, call Collector.collect(). Collectors are low level Lucene classes, but they allow issues to be placed into buckets very quickly. Many of JIRA's graphs and stats are generated in this manner. This method is useful if you need to execute a query in constant-memory (i.e. you do not want to load the results of your complete search into memory) and the query generated via JQL needs to be augmented with some custom Lucene query.

Parameters:

query - contains the information required to perform the search.

searcher - the user performing the search which will be used to provide context for the search.

Collector - the Lucene object that will have collect called for each match.

andQuery - additional Lucene query to be anded with the lucene query that will be generated from JQL

Throws:

SearchException - thrown if there is a severe problem encountered with lucene when searching (wraps an IOException).

ClauseTooComplexSearchException - if the query or part of the query produces lucene that is too complex to be processed.

This method is useful if you need to execute a query in constant-memory (i.e. you do not want to load the results of your complete search into memory).

Parameters:

query - contains the information required to perform the search.

searcher - the user performing the search which will be used to provide context for the search.

Collector - the Lucene object that will have collect called for each match.

Throws:

SearchException - thrown if there is a severe problem encountered with lucene when searching (wraps an IOException).

ClauseTooComplexSearchException - if the query or part of the query produces lucene that is too complex to be processed.

Since:

v4.3

searchOverrideSecurity

void searchOverrideSecurity(Query query,
                            com.atlassian.crowd.embedded.api.User searcher,
                            org.apache.lucene.search.Collector Collector)
                            throws SearchException

Run a search based on the provided search criteria and, for each match, call Collector.collect() not taking into account any security constraints. Do not use this method, use search(com.atlassian.query.Query , User, org.apache.lucene.search.Collector) instead, this should only be used when performing administrative tasks where you need to know ALL the issues that will be affected. Collectors are low level Lucene classes, but they allow issues to be placed into buckets very quickly. Many of JIRA's graphs and stats are generated in this manner. This method is useful if you need to execute a query in constant-memory (i.e. you do not want to load the results of your complete search into memory).

Parameters:

searcher - the user performing the search which will be used to provide context for the search.

Collector - the Lucene object that will have collect called for each match.

Throws:

SearchException - thrown if there is a severe problem encountered with lucene when searching (wraps an IOException).

searchAndSort

void searchAndSort(Query query,
                   com.atlassian.crowd.embedded.api.User searcher,

Note: this is much slower than using search(com.atlassian.query.Query ,User, org.apache.lucene.search.Collector). You may limit the number of results being collected by the Collector using the PagerFilter parameter. This method is useful if you need to execute a query in constant-memory (i.e. you do not want to load the results of your complete search into memory).

Parameters:

query - contains the information required to perform the search.

searcher - the user performing the search which will be used to provide context for the search.

Collector - the Lucene object that will have collect called for each match.

Throws:

SearchException - thrown if there is a severe problem encountered with lucene when searching (wraps an IOException).
