Question

I want/need to do some more or less complex logical queries in Sol:r and I’m not quite sure about the correct syntax. I searched the web, but with no real success.

Here’s what I want (just an example):

fq=FIELD1:[(0 TO 3.9) OR (5 TO 9.9)] AND FIELD2:[(2 TO 4.4) OR (0 TO 1) OR (7 TO *)] AND ...

It can go quite long and complex, depending on what the user actually activates.
What the user does is activating ranges of different facets to specifiy his search.
So IN the facet there’s always a OR logic, because he wants to spread the search and between the facets there’s always a AND logic.
That’s what I want to achieve, but I don’t know how to get the syntax working.

Any ideas from your side would be very helpful. Thank you for reading 🙂

Answer 1

You need something like this I think:

fq=FIELD1:([0 TO 3.9] OR [5 TO 9.9]) AND FIELD2:([2 TO 4.4] OR [0 TO 1] OR [7 TO *]) AND ...

just need to exchange [ and (. ( is a grouping operator; [ is a range operator.
