Design and Implementation of Full Text Search Engine Based on Lucene

Abstract

With the development of information technology, the types and quantities of documents are increasing rapidly. How can people extract information that they need from these documents quickly and accurately, which have already become a very important problem? For this problem, this paper proposed the full text search engine based on Lucene. At first, it achieved the extraction of text content based on the various types of documents, and established indexes for the various types of documents under the folder, then denoted the keyword by the logical expressions. Finally, we used the GUI (Graphical User Interface) to classify and display the result of retrieval, and verified the processes of establishing index and retrieving through experiments. Experimental results show that Lucene can retrieve the documents quickly and accurately, so meet the needs of users.
