Open Microscopy Environment

I am trying to modify the search app so that I can perform a search within a subset of images. I have two questions:

1) Does the API support this functionality? That is given, can I perform a search on a subset of images or dataset?
2) Does the batch search perform this task? Meaning, will the second search on a batch search use the results from the first search, and so on?

I created a search service and it doesn't have this functionaly.

Hi Ivan,

have you see the "and()" method on omero.api.SearchPrx?

• http://hudson.openmicroscopy.org.uk/job/OMERO/javadoc/ome/api/Search.html#and%28%29

You can see an example of it being used here:

• http://git.openmicroscopy.org/?p=ome.git;a=blob;f=components/server/test/ome/server/itests/search/SearchTest.java#l663

Cheers,

so i can do full text search on an image id?

Hmmmm,.... I'm not sure what you mean, Ivan. Maybe you need to give me the full story. But, "id" is certainly a field stored in Lucene, so you can do something like:

Code: Select all

name:cell* AND (id:10 OR id:100 OR id:1000)


I'm not sure if there is a limit on the number of ids in that OR subclause.

Cheers,
~Josh
