Special Characters Search using Querybuilder

  • August 3, 2018

Hi All,

I have a query regarding the search in JCR:content,

1. In the AEM using QueryBuilder. When I try searching with keyword "

KalmKap®" the trademark symbols are not getting searched. Instead of that it is searching for the keyword "Kalmkap".

2. The special characters like "[", "]", "{", "}", and many..... my search is not working...

Below is my Query::

group.1_fulltext.relPath=jcr:content/@jcr:title

group.1_fulltext=[KalmKap]

group.1_fulltext.relPath=jcr:content/@jcr:title

group.1_fulltext=KalmKap®

kindly help me out on this........

If you want to do this only with QueryBuilder then create custom predicate

e.g.

Code:

aem63app-repo/CaseInsensitiveLikePredicate.java at master · arunpatidar02/aem63app-repo · GitHub

Query

path=/content/we-retail/us/en/products

caseinsensitive.property=jcr:content/@jcr:title

caseinsensitive.value=%portland®%

Hi,

JCR XPATH only support few function, If you want better control over searching and querying the JCR, then use the JCR API SQL2 or the Query Builder

Thanks Arun Patidar​ The above worked well... I'm able to fetch all the expected results....

Still I'm stuck at one point. How can I limit the search result in XPath, like "guessTotal" in queryBuilder.

Hi,

fn:lower-case is not supported anymore with QueryBuilder.

Though you can use same with Xpath like below.

/jcr:root/content/we-retail/us/en/products//element(*, cq:Page)

[

(jcr:like(fn:lower-case(jcr:content/@jcr:title), '%portland®%'))

]

Hi Arun,

Using like operator is case sensitive. Please provide any suggestion to make it case insensitive. I tried using

property=fn:lower-case(jcr:content/@jcr:title)

property.value=%kalmkap®%

property.operation=like

but it didn't generate the X-Path in query debugger and no results found.

Any suggestions for using query builder.

Hi,

Can you try above query suggested by ​

/jcr:root/content/we-retail/us/en/products//element(*, cq:Page)

[

(jcr:like(jcr:content/@jcr:title, '%Portland®%'))
]

For Java you can either use QueryBuilderAPI or SQL2 queries.

Can you provide reference for JAVA API Search.

Hi,

We could achieve your requirement by using the below query. We'd suggest you to give it a try and check if it works.

For trying the below query, go to "/content/we-retail/ca/en/men" and change jcr:title property in title component to "Featured products ®". Then hit the following query from http://localhost:4502/libs/cq/search/content/querydebug.html

path=/content/we-retail/ca/en/men

property=jcr:title

property.operation=like

property.value=%®%

p.limit=-1

You should see the result now.

Hope this helps!

Regards,

TechAspect Solutions
