How to use case in-sentive search
Dear Team,
I am trying to build a search engine for fetching person info based on name
or email Id. For this I have standard Analyzer & wildcard. If I enter case
senstive query I get the result. but how to go about for case in-senstive
I mean if I search for rohan or Rohan should be same, Currently I search
as per DB that is Rohan , I get the result & not for rohan.
I have posted the same query in Stack overflow
http://stackoverflow.com/questions/30881355/java-lucene-4-5-how-to-search-by-case-insensitive/30926385#30926385
Please help me out, is there any refernce where I can look in

Thanks & Regards

Hi,
Wildcard queries don't use the Analyzer, so they are case sensitive. Most of Lucene's query parsers allow to lowercase although there is a wildcard, but xou have to enable this.
In most cases it is recommended to use a plain simple analyzer for fields using wildcards. If you also have stemming this will not work correctly with wildcards.
In general, if your queries require wildcards by default then you should review your analysis! A good configured analysis chain should allow the user to find stuff without using wildcards!!!

I was assuming this was a Lucene question...
The StandardAnalyzer already includes the lower case filter, so the default
should be case-insensitive query.
See:
https://lucene.apache.org/core/5_2_1/analyzers-common/org/apache/lucene/analysis/standard/StandardAnalyzer.html
If the question was really how to get case-sensitive query, simply create
your own analyzer without the lower case filter.

Add LowercaseFilterFactory to your analysis chain for the fieldType
both at query and index time. You'll need to re-index.
The admin UI/analysis page will help you understand the effects
of each analysis step defined in your fieldTypes.
Best,
Erick
