[![Build Status](https://camo.githubusercontent.com/37025273ab767da39686013d6e72748e4c9a928498c85f593472ea56aad6a735/68747470733a2f2f7472617669732d63692e6f72672f70696d636f72652f7365617263682d71756572792d7061727365722e7376673f6272616e63683d6d6173746572)](https://travis-ci.org/pimcore/search-query-parser)

A basic search query parsing library which can be used to transform free-text searches into SQL (or other) queries. The analyzed search query can be used to build complex (SQL) queries, searching for a term in multiple fields. Take a look at the [`Zend_Db` end to end test](test/ZendDbEndToEndTest.php#L71) an example or have a look into [examples/](examples/) for working examples.

Syntax
------

[](#syntax)

Search terms can be AND/OR combined, negated, grouped with parentheses and modified to fuzzy exact search with the following syntax:

- `foo`
- `foo* AND bar`
- `*foo* OR *bar*`
- `*foo* OR !*bar*`
- `*foo* AND bar`
- `foo OR (bar AND baz)`

### Modifiers

[](#modifiers)

Fuzzy search: `**`
Negation: `! !() !*`
