yaz_search — Prepares for a search
$id
, string $type
, string $query
) : boolyaz_search() prepares for a search on the given connection.
Like yaz_connect() this function is non-blocking and only prepares for a search to be executed later when yaz_wait() is called.
id
The connection resource returned by yaz_connect().
type
This parameter represents the query type - only "rpn"
is supported now in which case the third argument specifies a Type-1
query in prefix query notation.
query
The RPN query is a textual representation of the Type-1 query as
defined by the Z39.50 standard. However, in the text representation
as used by YAZ a prefix notation is used, that is the operator
precedes the operands. The query string is a sequence of tokens where
white space is ignored unless surrounded by double quotes. Tokens beginning
with an at-character (@
) are considered operators,
otherwise they are treated as search terms.
Construct | Description |
---|---|
@and query1 query2 |
intersection of query1 and query2 |
@or query1 query2 |
union of query1 and query2 |
@not query1 query2 |
query1 and not query2 |
@set name |
result set reference |
@attrset set query |
specifies attribute-set for query. This construction is only allowed once - in the beginning of the whole query |
@attr [set] type=value query |
applies attribute to query. The type and value are integers specifying the attribute-type and attribute-value respectively. The set, if given, specifies the attribute-set. |
You can find information about attributes at the » Z39.50 Maintenance Agency site.
Notă:
If you would like to use a more friendly notation, use the CCL parser - functions yaz_ccl_conf() and yaz_ccl_parse().

Example #1 Query Examples
You can search for simple terms, like this:
computer
The query
"knuth donald"
This query applies two attributes for the same phrase.
The query
@and @or a b @not @or c d e
(a or b) and ((c or d) not
e)
.
Another, more complex, one:
@attrset gils @and @attr 1=4 art @attr 1=2000 company
art
occur in the title (GILS,BIB-1)
and in which company
occur as Distributor (GILS).

To display holdings data set the syntax and the record format to "opac" (at least for Horizon ILS). It will give you an xml, containg <holding> elements with all info:
<?php
$z = yaz_connect(...
yaz_syntax($z, 'opac');
yaz_search($z, 'rpn', '@attr 1=4 "title%"');
yaz_wait();
$hits = yaz_hits($z);
yaz_range($z, 1, $hits);
yaz_present($z);
for($i = 1; $i <= $hits; $i++)
my_display(yaz_record($z, $i, 'opac'));
yaz_close($z);
function my_display($s)
{
$lines = explode("\n", trim($s));
var_dump($lines);
}
?>
