You can enclose a phrase in double quotes to match the complete phrase rather than the individual terms in the phrase. You can perform phrase searches with either the q
or bq
parameter. For example, the following queries produce the same results:
../search?q="coordinate geometry"
../search?bq='"coordinate geometry"'
If you perform this search against the ASN dataset, you'll notice that the results for the phrase search contain 1225 results:
{"rank":"-text_relevance", "match-expr":"(label '\"coordinate geometry\"')", "hits":{ "found":1225, "start":0, "hit":[ {"id":"s2374518"}, {"id":"s103e38a"}, {"id":"s102b66a"}, ... ] }, "info":{"rid":"7508c2e52f5c3c25eca625c994c1351ed8fed385d15bffaf9dd32aae31644e 939b8656dcd8c96d09","time-ms":2,"cpu-time-ms":0} }
