XYDocValuesField (Lucene 10.5.1 core API)
Description: declaration: package: org.apache.lucene.document, class: XYDocValuesField

Package org.apache.lucene.document

# Class XYDocValuesField

java.lang.Object
org.apache.lucene.document.Field
org.apache.lucene.document.XYDocValuesField

All Implemented Interfaces:
  `IndexableField`

public class XYDocValuesField extends Field
An per-document location field.

Sorting by distance is efficient. Multiple values for the same field in one document is allowed.

This field defines static factory methods for common operations:

- `newSlowBoxQuery()` for matching points within a bounding box.
- `newSlowDistanceQuery()` for matching points within a specified distance.
- `newSlowPolygonQuery()` for matching points within an arbitrary polygon.
- `newSlowGeometryQuery()` for matching points within an arbitrary geometry.
- `newDistanceSort()` for ordering documents by distance from a specified location.

If you also need query operations, you should add a separate `XYPointField` instance. If you also need to store the value, you should add a separate `StoredField` instance.

  - ### TYPE

    public static final FieldType TYPE
    Type for a XYDocValuesField

    Each value stores a 64-bit long where the upper 32 bits are the encoded x value, and the lower 32 bits are the encoded y value.

- ## Constructor Details

  - ### XYDocValuesField

    public XYDocValuesField(String name, float x, float y)
    Creates a new XYDocValuesField with the specified x and y
    Parameters:
      `name` - field name
      `x` - x value.
      `y` - y values.
    Throws:
      `IllegalArgumentException` - if the field name is null or x or y are infinite or NaN.

  - ### setLocationValue

    public void setLocationValue(float x, float y)
    Change the values of this field
    Parameters:
      `x` - x value.
      `y` - y value.
    Throws:
      `IllegalArgumentException` - if x or y are infinite or NaN.

  - ### toString

    public String toString()
    Description copied from class: `Field`
    Prints a Field for human consumption.
    Overrides:
      `toString` in class `Field`

  - ### newDistanceSort

    public static SortField newDistanceSort(String field, float x, float y)
    Creates a SortField for sorting by distance from a location.

    This sort orders documents by ascending distance from the location. The value returned in `FieldDoc` for the hits contains a Double instance with the distance in meters.

    If a document is missing the field, then by default it is treated as having `Double.POSITIVE_INFINITY` distance (missing values sort last).

    If a document contains multiple values for the field, the closest distance to the location is used.

    Parameters:
      `field` - field name. must not be null.
      `x` - x at the center.
      `y` - y at the center.
    Returns:
      SortField ordering documents by distance
    Throws:
      `IllegalArgumentException` - if `field` is null or location has invalid coordinates.

  - ### newSlowBoxQuery

    public static Query newSlowBoxQuery(String field, float minX, float maxX, float minY, float maxY)
    Create a query for matching a bounding box using doc values. This query is usually slow as it does not use an index structure and needs to verify documents one-by-one in order to know whether they match. It is best used wrapped in an `IndexOrDocValuesQuery` alongside a `XYPointField.newBoxQuery(java.lang.String, float, float, float, float)`.

  - ### newSlowDistanceQuery

    public static Query newSlowDistanceQuery(String field, float x, float y, float radius)
    Create a query for matching points within the specified distance of the supplied location. This query is usually slow as it does not use an index structure and needs to verify documents one-by-one in order to know whether they match. It is best used wrapped in an `IndexOrDocValuesQuery` alongside a `XYPointField.newDistanceQuery(java.lang.String, float, float, float)`.
    Parameters:
      `field` - field name. must not be null.
      `x` - x at the center.
      `y` - y at the center: must be within standard +/-180 coordinate bounds.
      `radius` - maximum distance from the center in cartesian distance: must be non-negative and finite.
    Returns:
      query matching points within this distance
    Throws:
      `IllegalArgumentException` - if `field` is null, location has invalid coordinates, or radius is invalid.

  - ### newSlowPolygonQuery

    public static Query newSlowPolygonQuery(String field, XYPolygon... polygons)
    Create a query for matching points within the supplied polygons. This query is usually slow as it does not use an index structure and needs to verify documents one-by-one in order to know whether they match. It is best used wrapped in an `IndexOrDocValuesQuery` alongside a `XYPointField.newPolygonQuery(String, XYPolygon...)`.
    Parameters:
      `field` - field name. must not be null.
      `polygons` - array of polygons. must not be null or empty.
    Returns:
      query matching points within the given polygons.
    Throws:
      `IllegalArgumentException` - if `field` is null or polygons is empty or contain a null polygon.

  - ### newSlowGeometryQuery

    public static Query newSlowGeometryQuery(String field, XYGeometry... geometries)
    Create a query for matching points within the supplied geometries. XYLine geometries are not supported. This query is usually slow as it does not use an index structure and needs to verify documents one-by-one in order to know whether they match. It is best used wrapped in an `IndexOrDocValuesQuery` alongside a `XYPointField.newGeometryQuery(String, XYGeometry...)`.
    Parameters:
      `field` - field name. must not be null.
      `geometries` - array of XY geometries. must not be null or empty.
    Returns:
      query matching points within the given geometries.
    Throws:
      `IllegalArgumentException` - if `field` is null, `polygons` is null, empty or contains a null or XYLine geometry.
