For details on filtering Document Types, refer to section Searching for Document Types of chapter Managing Document Types.

Filtering on Document IDs

To define a filter on the document ID (ID) use the document Id as a predicate in a Document Query.

public static final FilterableAttribute ID = new Attribute("id");

Filtering on Document Names

To define a filter on the document name (NAME) use the document name as a predicate in a Document Query.

public static final FilterableAttribute NAME = new Attribute("name");

Filtering on Document Content Types

To define a filter on the document's content type (CONTENT_TYPE) use the document content type as a predicate in a Document Query.

public static final FilterableAttribute CONTENT_TYPE = new Attribute("contentType");

Example

The following example uses the DocumentQuery for finding documents with a specific content type by using the CONTENT_TYPE filter:

   private ServiceFactory sf = ServiceFactoryLocator.get("motu", "motu");
