SQuery Sample

Note

Indexing Service is no longer supported as of Windows XP and is unavailable for use as of Windows 8. Instead, use Windows Search for client side search and Microsoft Search Server Express for server side search.

 

The SQuery sample consists of three scripts that execute using Windows Script Host. VBSQuery is written in Microsoft Visual Basic Scripting Edition (VBScript) and performs a simple query. JSQuery is a translation of VBSQuery to JScript. QSample is written in VBScript and functions similarly to the C++ Simple sample with managing and querying functionality.

Source: mssdk\samples\winbase\indexing\SQuery\

To execute queries using the VBSQuery.vbs or JSQuery.js scripts

  1. Open a command window and change the directory to the path of the sample scripts.

  2. Submit a fixed query by entering, at the command-line prompt, cscript vbsquery.vbs

    or

    cscript jsquery.js

To execute queries using the QSample.vbs script

  1. Open a command window and change the directory to the path of the sample scripts.

  2. Formulate a query that you know will succeed. You need to know the query text and, optionally, values for the machine, catalog, scope, columns, query language dialect, locale, sort order, and other arguments (see the following list).

  3. Submit a query by entering, at the command-line prompt, cscript qsample.vbs <query> [arguments]

    where the value of the command-line parameter <query> is an Indexing Service query, and the arguments can include the following.

    Value Meaning
    /c:<catalog> is the name of the catalog. Default is SYSTEM.
    /e:<locale> is ISO locale identifier; for example, EN-US. Default is system locale.
    /f:(+|-) + or - specifies forcing use of the index. Default is +.
    /g specifies forcing a master merge.
    /i:<inputfile> specifies an input file to read with queries, one per line.
    /j specifies to return just files in the scope path, and not subdirectories.
    /l:<dialect> specifies the query language dialect, 1 or 2. Default is 1.
    /m:<machine> is the name of the computer. Default is the local computer.
    /o:<columns> is the output column list. Default is path.
    /p:<scope> is the scope path of the query, absolute or relative.
    /q specifies to execute quietly. Display only query results.
    /r:# is the number of times to repeat the command.
    /s:<sort> is the sort column list. Default is none. For example: write[d]. Append [a] for ascending (default) or [d] for descending.
    /t specifies to display catalog statistics.
    /u specifies to check if the catalog is up to date.
    /x:<maxhits> is the maximum number of hits to retrieve. Default is no limit.

     

QSample

QSample uses the Query Helper API and is much more general and flexible than the VBSQuery and JSQuery scripts. It also uses the Admin Helper API to perform some managing tasks.

You can specify the following columns with the /o argument.

  • attrib
  • create
  • directory
  • docauthor
  • dockeywords
  • doclastauthor
  • docsubject
  • doctitle
  • fileindex
  • filename
  • hitcount
  • path
  • rank
  • size
  • vpath
  • workid
  • write

You can specify the following locales with the /e argument.

  • af

  • ar ar-ae ar-bh ar-dz ar-eg ar-iq ar-jo ar-kw ar-lb

    ar-ly ar-ma ar-om ar-qa ar-sa ar-sy ar-tn ar-ye

  • be bg ca cs da

  • de de-at de-ch de-li de-lu

  • en en-au en-bz en-ca en-gb en-ie en-jm en-nz en-tt

Programming Notes

The query executed by these scripts is embedded in the script. The query uses the Query Helper API and consists of the following:

  • Columns = file name, directory, size, write
  • Query = #filename *.asp
  • GroupBy = directory[a]
  • Catalog = system
  • CiScope = \
  • CiFlags = DEEP
  • OptimizeFor = recall,hitcount
  • AllowEnumeration = TRUE
  • MaxRecords = 20000

The JSQuery script is a direct translation of the VBSQuery script to JScript. Its output is identical to that of VBSQuery except for a difference in the way dates and times are represented.

Example Queries

Finds all files in the "system" catalog on the local computer that contain the word "mango" and outputs the size and path values.

cscript qsample.vbs mango /o:size,path

Finds all files in the "system" catalog on the local computer with the relative path "." that contain the word "peach" but not the word "apple" and outputs the path value sorted in order of increasing rank.

cscript qsample.vbs "peach and not apple"" /s:rank[d] /p:.

Finds all files in the "system" catalog on the computer "dogfood" whose size is greater than 1000000 bytes and outputs the size and path values sorted in order of increasing size.

cscript qsample.vbs "@size > 1000000"" /o:size,path /s:size[a] /m:dogfood

Finds all files in the "system" catalog on the local computer whose docauthor property is "joe" and outputs the docauthor and path values sorted in order of ascending docauthor and then ascending path.

cscript qsample.vbs "@docauthor joe"" /o:docauthor,path /s:docauthor,path

Finds all files in the "system" catalog on the local computer with an absolute scope of c:\files and outputs the path in unsorted order.

cscript qsample.vbs apricot /p:c:\\files

Finds all files in the "sources" catalog on the computer "index1" containing the word "pear" and outputs the path value in unsorted order.

cscript qsample.vbs /m:index1 /c:sources pear
