List indexes

The List index feature helps the administrator take control of how the objects (documents, folders, emails and records) are indexed by the Lucene search engine.

On the main screen, a table shows the Lucene-indexed fields of each object.

Common indexed fields:

Field	Description
#	Number
_hibernate_class	The Hibernate class name: - com.openkm.dao.bean.NodeFolder - com.openkm.dao.bean.NodeDocument - com.openkm.dao.bean.NodeMail - com.openkm.dao.bean.NodeRecord
uuid	Object’s unique identifier.
parent	Parent node.
context	Context values: - okm_root - okm_metadata - okm_categories - okm_thesaurus - okm_templates - okm_personal - okm_mail - okm_personal - okm_trash
tenant	Tenant identifier.
author	ID of the author.
created	Indicates when the object was created.
name	Object name.
userPermission	User permissions.
rolePermission	Role permissions.

Search indexes

On the top right, click on Search indexes button.
In the input box, paste an object’s UUID (from the desktop view you can get any object’s UUID on the Properties tab; select the UUID and press CTRL+C to copy).
Click the Search button.
From the table list, click on List icon.

Let’s see an example. Imagine you have two documents called “Parana.doc” and “Parana.pdf”. You can locate them with this search:

name:paran*

But be careful, because using quotation marks you won’t get any results:

name:"paran*"

If you want to locate all PDF documents whose names start with “Paran”, the correct query is:

name:paran*pdf

This query would also work (note the dot before the extension):

name:paran*.pdf

But this query will fail because you cannot use a * or ? symbol as the first character of a search. This is a Lucene limitation.

name:*pdf

If you want to look up documents with a given extension, I recommend using the MIME type property this way:

mimeType:application/pdf

In this query, we are looking for all documents whose names start with “parana” and that have a keyword called “dog”:

name:parana* AND keyword:song

You can learn more about query syntax at Lucene Query Syntax.
