在不使用索引的情况下也可以进行全文检索。

• 一个简单查询：将body字段中包含america的每一行打印出来。

  1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 28 29 30 31 32 33 34 35 36 37 38

  openGauss=# DROP SCHEMA IF EXISTS tsearch CASCADE; openGauss=# CREATE SCHEMA tsearch; openGauss=# CREATE TABLE tsearch.pgweb(id int, body text, title text, last_mod_date date); openGauss=# INSERT INTO tsearch.pgweb VALUES(1, 'China, officially the People''s Republic of China (PRC), located in Asia, is the world''s most populous state.', 'China', '2010-1-1'); openGauss=# INSERT INTO tsearch.pgweb VALUES(2, 'America is a rock band, formed in England in 1970 by multi-instrumentalists Dewey Bunnell, Dan Peek, and Gerry Beckley.', 'America', '2010-1-1'); openGauss=# INSERT INTO tsearch.pgweb VALUES(3, 'England is a country that is part of the United Kingdom. It shares land borders with Scotland to the north and Wales to the west.', 'England', '2010-1-1'); openGauss=# INSERT INTO tsearch.pgweb VALUES(4, 'Australia, officially the Commonwealth of Australia, is a country comprising the mainland of the Australian continent, the island of Tasmania, and numerous smaller islands.', 'Australia', '2010-1-1'); openGauss=# INSERT INTO tsearch.pgweb VALUES(6, 'Japan is an island country in East Asia.', 'Japan', '2010-1-1'); openGauss=# INSERT INTO tsearch.pgweb VALUES(7, 'Germany, officially the Federal Republic of Germany, is a sovereign state and federal parliamentary republic in central-western Europe.', 'Germany', '2010-1-1'); openGauss=# INSERT INTO tsearch.pgweb VALUES(8, 'France, is a sovereign state comprising territory in western Europe and several overseas regions and territories.', 'France', '2010-1-1'); openGauss=# INSERT INTO tsearch.pgweb VALUES(9, 'Italy officially the Italian Republic, is a unitary parliamentary republic in Europe.', 'Italy', '2010-1-1'); openGauss=# INSERT INTO tsearch.pgweb VALUES(10, 'India, officially the Republic of India, is a country in South Asia.', 'India', '2010-1-1'); openGauss=# INSERT INTO tsearch.pgweb VALUES(11, 'Brazil, officially the Federative Republic of Brazil, is the largest country in both South America and Latin America.', 'Brazil', '2010-1-1'); openGauss=# INSERT INTO tsearch.pgweb VALUES(12, 'Canada is a country in the northern half of North America.', 'Canada', '2010-1-1'); openGauss=# INSERT INTO tsearch.pgweb VALUES(13, 'Mexico, officially the United Mexican States, is a federal republic in the southern part of North America.', 'Mexico', '2010-1-1'); openGauss=# SELECT id, body, title FROM tsearch.pgweb WHERE to_tsvector('english', body) @@ to_tsquery('english', 'america'); id | body | title ----+-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+--------- 2 | America is a rock band, formed in England in 1970 by multi-instrumentalists Dewey Bunnell, Dan Peek, and Gerry Beckley. | America 11 | Brazil, officially the Federative Republic of Brazil, is the largest country in both South America and Latin America. | Brazil 12 | Canada is a country in the northern half of North America. | Canada 13 | Mexico, officially the United Mexican States, is a federal republic in the southern part of North America. | Mexico (4 rows)

  像America这样的相关词也会被找到，因为这些词都被处理成了相同标准的词条。

  上面的查询指定english配置来解析和规范化字符串。当然也可以省略此配置，通过default_text_search_config进行配置设置：

  1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14

  openGauss=# SHOW default_text_search_config; default_text_search_config ---------------------------- pg_catalog.english (1 row) openGauss=# SELECT id, body, title FROM tsearch.pgweb WHERE to_tsvector(body) @@ to_tsquery('america'); id | body | title ----+-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+--------- 2 | America is a rock band, formed in England in 1970 by multi-instrumentalists Dewey Bunnell, Dan Peek, and Gerry Beckley. | America 11 | Brazil, officially the Federative Republic of Brazil, is the largest country in both South America and Latin America. | Brazil 12 | Canada is a country in the northern half of North America. | Canada 13 | Mexico, officially the United Mexican States, is a federal republic in the southern part of North America. | Mexico (4 rows)

• 一个复杂查询：检索出在title或者body字段中包含north和america的最近10篇文档：

  1 2 3 4 5 6

  openGauss=# SELECT title FROM tsearch.pgweb WHERE to_tsvector(title || ' ' || body) @@ to_tsquery('north & america') ORDER BY last_mod_date DESC LIMIT 10; title -------- Canada Mexico (2 rows)

  为了清晰，举例中没有调用coalesce函数在两个字段中查找包含NULL的行。

  以上例子均在没有索引的情况下进行查询。对于大多数应用程序来说，这个方法很慢。因此除了偶尔的特定搜索，文本搜索在实际使用中通常需要创建索引。
