Faceted Search |
Top Previous Next |
Faceted search is similar to faceted navigation, the only difference is that initial set of topics shown in the results is restricted, usually as the result of a text search. To specify the initial set of topics there is a RestrictResults property on the FSO (of type List<int>) which can be used. One simple approach to implement faceted search is using Lucene.NET or the Microsoft Indexing Service All that is required, from technical perspective, is a way to map a search result to a topic ID. This can often by done by embedding the TMCore topic ID or subject identifier of a content item directly within the search index. This is shown in the demonstration package. |
