[jira] Commented: (NUTCH-775) Enhance Searcher interface

["Andrzej Bialecki (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>]

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NUTCH-775?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=12791411#action_12791411 ] 

Andrzej Bialecki  commented on NUTCH-775:
-----------------------------------------

+1. I would suggest creating a subclass of Metadata, where we can guarantee the presence of some required parameters, e.g.:

{code}
public class SearchContext extends Metadata {
  protected int numHits;
  protected String sortField;
  protected String dedupField;
  ...
  // setters and getters for the above
}
{code}

and change the QueryFilter interface to use SearchContext too.

> Current Searcher interface is too limited for many purposes:
> Hits search(Query query, int numHits, String dedupField, String sortField,
>       boolean reverse) throws IOException;
> It would be nice that we had an interface that allowed adding different features without changing the interface. I am proposing that we deprecate the current search method and introduce something like:
> Hits search(Query query, Metadata context) throws IOException;
> Also at the same time we should enhance the QueryFilter interface to look something like:
> BooleanQuery filter(Query input, BooleanQuery translation, Metadata context)
>     throws QueryException;
> I would like to hear your comments before proceeding with a patch.
