Java full text search

[Felix Gao]

Hello,

I am playing around with my db on mongohq and I have created my index as 

{ key: { _fts: "text", _ftsx: 1 }, v: 1, ns: "test_full_text.Location", name: "FullTextIndexOnAddressAndName", weights: { a: 1, n: 10 }, default_language: "english", language_override:"language", textIndexVersion: 1 }

Now I am not sure how to query it.  Does anyone have an example on how to query the data in Java?  I am using the 2.10.1 driver. 

Thanks,

Felix

You will need to construct the command manually.  I'm typing this in without the benefit of an editor so likely to have typos.

DB db = ...;

String collectionName = "...";

String terms = "...";

db.command(new BasicDBObject("text" : collectionName).append("search", terms)); 

You can also append a "filter", "project", "limit", and/or "language" field.  As documented here: http://docs.mongodb.org/manual/release-notes/2.4/#text-queries

Note that the "text" field must be the first field in the DBObject.

Not sure if the driver will get a helper method post 2.4 release or not.
