Class IcuCollationKeyAnalyzer

java.lang.Object

org.apache.lucene.analysis.Analyzer

org.xbib.elasticsearch.index.analysis.icu.IcuCollationKeyAnalyzer

All Implemented Interfaces:

java.io.Closeable, java.lang.AutoCloseable

public final class IcuCollationKeyAnalyzer
extends org.apache.lucene.analysis.Analyzer

Configures a KeywordTokenizer with an IcuCollationAttributeFactory.

Converts the token into its CollationKey and then encodes the CollationKey directly.

WARNING: Make sure you use exactly the same Collator at index and query time -- CollationKeys are only comparable when produced by the same Collator. RuleBasedCollators are independently versioned, so it is safe to search against stored CollationKeys if the following are exactly the same (best practice is to store this information with the index and check that they remain the same at query time):

1. Collator version - see Collator.getVersion()
2. The collation strength used - see Collator.setStrength(int)

CollationKeys generated by ICU Collators are not compatible with those generated by java.text.Collators. Specifically, if you use ICUCollationKeyAnalyzer to generate index terms, do not use CollationKeyAnalyzer on the query side, or vice versa.

ICUCollationKeyAnalyzer is significantly faster and generates significantly shorter keys than CollationKeyAnalyzer. See http://site.icu-project.org/charts/collation-icu4j-sun for key generation timing and key length comparisons between ICU4J and java.text.Collator over several languages.
