IBM Cloudant Query Parameters

The $text operator is based on a Lucene search with a standard analyzer. The operator isn't case-sensitive, and matches on any words. However, the $text operator doesn't support full Lucene syntax, such as wildcards, fuzzy matches, or proximity detection.

For more information, see the Search documentation. The $text operator applies to all strings found in the document. If you place this operator in the context of a field name, it's invalid.

The format of the selector field is as described in the selector syntax, except for the $text operator.

The fields array is a list of fields that must be returned for each document. The provided field names can use dotted notation to access subfields.

See the following example JSON document that uses all available query parameters:

{
	"selector": {
		"year": {
			"$gt": 2010
		}
	},
	"fields": ["_id", "_rev", "year", "title"],
	"sort": [{"year": "asc"}],
	"limit": 10,
	"skip": 0
	}
