Open Source Document Management System | OpenKM

Hello,

I used the java SDK and i need to search documents through metadata.

I need to perform search like meta1=ABC AND (meta2=X OR meta2=Y)

It seems not possible to do that with the API (OKMWebservices.search.find)

Is it possible to use the lucene syntax to achive this ? (OKMWebservices.search.findByQuery)

it works well with the basic parameters but i cant find the way to use it with the metadata.

Thanks for your help

OR query can only be used from lucene search queries. In OpenKM professional edition we have direct support for this kind of queries from the UI ( currently not available from CE ) maybe this section of the documentation of the professional edition can give some clue https://docs.openkm.com/kcenter/view/ok ... eries.html

If share the current query can take a look.

Hello,

Thanks for the info, i used escape chars for metadata so now the query syntax is correct. But the result is wrong.

We use OpenKM version 7.1.24 (found in the UI interface)
We use sdk4j 3.15 to perform queries.

The lucene syntax works for basic properties but not for metadata :

something like : name:abcd_ACD_* OR name:abcd_OUF_* --> works perfectly

but : okp.dm.doc_cat:ACD --> returns nothing (i've results using the UI interface with REST)

Any ideas ?

Thanks

You should add wildcard at the end okp.dm.doc_cat:ACD ( in this query you are searching for exact workd ACD ) as okp.dm.doc_cat:ACD* ( will search for word what start with ACD )

Hello,

the syntax okp\:dm.doc_cat:value works.
Also with the "AND" and "OR" operators.

Thanks
