You can see how many documents are in the indexing queue and the estimated remaining time. The documents are indexed asynchronously, in a background thread, so the 'Apply' button only triggers the selected action. You can use either XWiki Query Language (XWQL) or Hibernate Query Language (HQL).

If you have programming rights you may also limit the list of documents that will be affected by the selected action using a custom query. In the 'Solr search administration' section (or Global Administration > Search > Solr), choose the action you wish to perform on your wiki: The default folder that stores the Solr index is cache/solr/search starting with 12.5 and /solr before but you can change it by adding the property to the file 'WEB-INF/xwiki.properties'. Both are very slow tasks so disabling them when you don't really need them can give you an important speed boost in the search UI. XWiki 7.1It's possible to enable/disable highlighting and faceting. the score for each search result and the way it was computed.the filter queries (see which filters/facets are applied and their values).the parsed query (see which index fields are used and what is their priority/boost).If you want to debug the search you can add &debug=true to the search URL query string. If you want to query the XWiki Solr Index programmatically then see the Solr Query API available in XWiki. You should also check the schema of the XWiki Solr Index to see what fields can be used in the Solr queries. Boolean operators: AND, OR, NOT (uppercase), “+” and “-”.You'll have to read the Solr documentation for details. The Solr search engine used in XWiki parses the search query (what you type in the search input) using by default the Extended DisMax Query Parser.

You can of course expand it with one tap. On small screens (phones) the list of search facets is collapsed before the search results.

XWiki 7.1M1The search UI is responsive with the screen size.

Facets don't take into account rights filtering of results, see XWIKI-13089.

It filters out the results that are not viewable by the user, but it does not properly clean up the response and, as a consequence, the pagination might be broken (results with 'holes'), see XWIKI-8583.

The user interface has currently some limitations related to access rights: It contains the same type of information that was included in the old Lucene search RSS feed. You can select multiple values and the selection is preserved if you submit a new search query.Īt the bottom of the search results you can find a link to a RSS feed that provides the most recent results that match the current search query and filters. The number of displayed facet values is limited to 5 by default but you can see the rest of the values by clicking on the link following the facet values (each click will show 5 more values).
