search for: weighted_body_query

...ing OP_OR, which will rank higher a document where both the title and the body match. Alternatively, OP_MAX may work better (use whichever side ranks higher, which will probably be the higher-weighted one). Something like this: final_query = xapian.Query(xapian.Query.OP_MAX, [weighted_title_query, weighted_body_query]) (Note that boosting title to 4 and body to 2 probably isn't better than just boosting title to 2 and leaving body at standard weighting. Of course if you have a more complex search structure going on then that may still make sense!) Hope this helps! J -- James Aylett, occasional trouble...

Hi, I'm using Xapian in Python2. I'm trying to replicate an analysis that somebody else performed in Lucene. To do that I need to do a search for a multi-word query in which particular fields are boosted - preferably at query time. That is, given a query like "the cat is lying on the mat" (with an OR operator, ignoring word positions but with stemming and stop words removed),
