Method Detail

### setBoost

    void setBoost(float boost)

  Sets the boost factor hits on this field. This value will be multiplied into the score of all hits on this this field of this document.

  The boost is multiplied by `Document.getBoost()` of the document containing this field. If a document has multiple fields with the same name, all such values are multiplied together. This product is then multipled by the value `Similarity.lengthNorm(String,int)`, and rounded by `Similarity.encodeNorm(float)` before it is stored in the index. One should attempt to ensure that this product does not overflow the range of that encoding.

  See Also:
    `Document.setBoost(float)`, `Similarity.lengthNorm(String, int)`, `Similarity.encodeNorm(float)`

### getBoost

    float getBoost()

  Returns the boost factor for hits for this field.

  The default value is 1.0.

  Note: this value is not stored directly with the document in the index. Documents returned from `IndexReader.document(int)` and `Hits.doc(int)` may thus not have the same value present as when this field was indexed.

  See Also:
    `setBoost(float)`

### name

    String name()

  Returns the name of the field as an interned string. For example "date", "title", "body", ...

### stringValue

    String stringValue()

  The value of the field as a String, or null. If null, the Reader value, binary value, or TokenStream value is used. Exactly one of stringValue(), readerValue(), binaryValue(), and tokenStreamValue() must be set.

### readerValue

    Reader readerValue()

  The value of the field as a Reader, or null. If null, the String value, binary value, or TokenStream value is used. Exactly one of stringValue(), readerValue(), binaryValue(), and tokenStreamValue() must be set.

### binaryValue

    byte[] binaryValue()

  The value of the field in Binary, or null. If null, the Reader value, String value, or TokenStream value is used. Exactly one of stringValue(), readerValue(), binaryValue(), and tokenStreamValue() must be set.

### tokenStreamValue

    TokenStream tokenStreamValue()

  The value of the field as a TokenStream, or null. If null, the Reader value, String value, or binary value is used. Exactly one of stringValue(), readerValue(), binaryValue(), and tokenStreamValue() must be set.

### isStored

    boolean isStored()

  True iff the value of the field is to be stored in the index for return with search hits. It is an error for this to be true if a field is Reader-valued.

### isIndexed

    boolean isIndexed()

  True iff the value of the field is to be indexed, so that it may be searched on.

### isTokenized

    boolean isTokenized()

  True iff the value of the field should be tokenized as text prior to indexing. Un-tokenized fields are indexed as a single word and may not be Reader-valued.

### isCompressed

    boolean isCompressed()

  True if the value of the field is stored and compressed within the index

### isTermVectorStored

    boolean isTermVectorStored()

  True iff the term or terms used to index this field are stored as a term vector, available from `IndexReader.getTermFreqVector(int,String)`. These methods do not provide access to the original content of the field, only to terms used to index it. If the original content must be preserved, use the `stored` attribute instead.

  See Also:
    `IndexReader.getTermFreqVector(int, String)`

### isStoreOffsetWithTermVector

    boolean isStoreOffsetWithTermVector()

  True iff terms are stored as term vector together with their offsets (start and end positon in source text).

### isStorePositionWithTermVector

    boolean isStorePositionWithTermVector()

  True iff terms are stored as term vector together with their token positions.

### isBinary

    boolean isBinary()

  True iff the value of the filed is stored as binary

### getOmitNorms

    boolean getOmitNorms()

  True if norms are omitted for this indexed field

### setOmitNorms

    void setOmitNorms(boolean omitNorms)

  Expert: If set, omit normalization factors associated with this indexed field. This effectively disables indexing boosts and length normalization for this field.

### isLazy

    boolean isLazy()

  Indicates whether a Field is Lazy or not. The semantics of Lazy loading are such that if a Field is lazily loaded, retrieving it's values via `stringValue()` or `binaryValue()` is only valid as long as the `IndexReader` that retrieved the `Document` is still open.

  Returns:
    true if this field can be loaded lazily
