N-Gram Index

Index Configuration

To create an n-gram index, add a <ngram> element directly below the root <index> node. The n-gram index only supports index definitions by qname. The path attribute is not supported (we currently don't see many real use cases for it). Right now, the n-gram index has no additional parameters to be specified; the default settings should just be ok for most cases (we may add extra parameters in the future, e.g. for collapsing/normalizing whitespace).
