    java.lang.Object
      org.apache.lucene.search.postingshighlight.Passage

Represents a passage (typically a sentence of the document).

A passage contains `getNumMatches()` highlights from the query, and the offsets and query terms that correspond with each match.

WARNING: This API is experimental and might change in incompatible ways in the next release.

Constructor Summary
`Passage()`

Method Summary
`int` | `getEndOffset()` End offset of this passage.
`int[]` | `getMatchEnds()` End offsets of the term matches, corresponding with `getMatchStarts()`.
`int[]` | `getMatchStarts()` Start offsets of the term matches, in increasing order.
`BytesRef[]` | `getMatchTerms()` BytesRef (term text) of the matches, corresponding with `getMatchStarts()`.
`int` | `getNumMatches()` Number of term matches available in `getMatchStarts()`, `getMatchEnds()`, `getMatchTerms()`
`float` | `getScore()` Passage's score.

Constructor Detail

### Passage

    public Passage()

Method Detail

### getStartOffset

    public int getStartOffset()

  Start offset of this passage.

  Returns:
    start index (inclusive) of the passage in the original content: always >= 0.

### getEndOffset

    public int getEndOffset()

  End offset of this passage.

  Returns:
    end index (exclusive) of the passage in the original content: always >= `getStartOffset()`

### getScore

    public float getScore()

  Passage's score.

### getNumMatches

    public int getNumMatches()

  Number of term matches available in `getMatchStarts()`, `getMatchEnds()`, `getMatchTerms()`

### getMatchStarts

    public int[] getMatchStarts()

  Start offsets of the term matches, in increasing order.

  Only `getNumMatches()` are valid. Note that these offsets are absolute (not relative to `getStartOffset()`).

### getMatchEnds

    public int[] getMatchEnds()

  End offsets of the term matches, corresponding with `getMatchStarts()`.

  Only `getNumMatches()` are valid. Note that its possible that an end offset could exceed beyond the bounds of the passage (`getEndOffset()`), if the Analyzer produced a term which spans a passage boundary.

### getMatchTerms

    public BytesRef[] getMatchTerms()

  BytesRef (term text) of the matches, corresponding with `getMatchStarts()`.

  Only `getNumMatches()` are valid.
