Abstract
Provided are techniques for providing and using pivot facets for text mining and search. A metadata field is mapped to a pivot facet. In response to executing a first query, at least a first document and the pivot facet are displayed. In response to selection of the pivot facet, a second query that includes a value of the metadata field is generated, and the second query is executed to locate at least a second document that includes the value of the metadata field.
Claims21
A method, comprising:
- mapping, using a processor of a computer, a metadata field to a pivot facet;
- in response to executing a first query, displaying, using the processor of the computer, at least a first document and the pivot facet;
- and
- in response to selection of the pivot facet,
- generating, using the processor of the computer, a second query that includes a value of the metadata field;
- and
- executing, using the processor of the computer, the second query to locate at least a second document that includes the value of the metadata field.
A computer program product, the computer program product comprising a computer readable storage medium having program code embodied therewith, the program code executable by at least one processor to:
- map, by the at least one processor, a metadata field to a pivot facet;
- in response to executing a first query, display, by the at least one processor, at least a first document and the pivot facet;
- and
- in response to selection of the pivot facet,
- generate, by the at least one processor, a second query that includes a value of the metadata field;
- and
- execute, by the at least one processor, the second query to locate at least a second document that includes the value of the metadata field.
A computer system, comprising:
- one or more processors, one or more computer-readable memories and one or more computer-readable, tangible storage devices;
- and
- program instructions, stored on at least one of the one or more computer-readable, tangible storage devices for execution by at least one of the one or more processors via at least one of the one or more memories, to:
- map a metadata field to a pivot facet;
- in response to executing a first query, display at least a first document and the pivot facet;
- and
- in response to selection of the pivot facet,
- generate a second query that includes a value of the metadata field;
- and
- execute the second query to locate at least a second document that includes the value of the metadata field.
