Brief Search methods:
Enter words to search all document contents,
or use 'field:terms' to search a specific field.
- AND + between terms to require all terms be matched;
OR to match any term;
NOT - to exclude terms
- ? * are wild cards for 1 or many letters
- match "a phrase with double-quotes".
- search numeric ranges, as with Length:[ 100 TO 200 ]
- UPPERCASE is required for AND, OR, NOT, TO.
These characters are reserved:
+ - & | ! ( ) { } [ ] ^ " ~ * ? : \
To match these in a search term, precede
them with the '\' escape character,
or use the '?' single wild character.
Examples:
The
query syntax
supported is that of the Lucene project
in common with other search systems.
See also the EBI's
EB-eye,
that also uses Lucene for searches,
and the new Uniprot search (2007).
