Uploading a JavaScript blob
In Fusion 5.9, JavaScript blobs must be uploaded using the Blob Store API, like this:curl -u USERNAME:PASSWORD -X PUT -H 'Content-Type: text/javascript' --data-binary @query-pipeline-js-stage.js http://FUSION_HOST:FUSION_PORT/api/apps/APP_NAME/blobs/query-pipeline-js-stage.js?resourceType=file:js-query
Referencing a JavaScript blob
Use any of the following formats for theref/Script Reference configuration field:
query-pipeline-js-stage.js
blob:query-pipeline-js-stage.js
urn:x-fusion:blob:query-pipeline-js-stage.js
The examples above use
query-pipeline-js-stage.js as the blob ID.Edit JavaScript
For Fusion 5.4.x and later, select Edit in the Script Reference field to edit JavaScript directly in the Fusion UI.JavaScript examples
When reusing a script in both Managed JavaScript index stages and Managed JavaScript query stages, you need to upload it twice: once as a
file:js-index blob and once as a file:js-query blob.Set up a reusable library
This is an example of a reusable JavaScript library that provides various utility functions for string processing, date handling, and type conversion. To reuse Javascript functions, create a stage like this one that defines them, then place it before any of the stages that use it./* globals Java, logger*/

Call reusable JavaScript functions
This example demonstrates how to call reusable JavaScript functions from a library like the one in the example above. A JavaScript stage that calls these functions must be placed after the one that loads the library into the context. This example also adds debug logging to the context so that it can be appended to the response and viewed in Query Workbench./* globals Java, logger*/

Bury documents in search results
This example enables aproductsToBury parameter that allows you to specify a list of product IDs to “bury” or demote in search results.
/* globals Java, logger*/
//JavaScript (ES5.1)
(function () {
"use strict"; // avoid globals!
// Configuration constants for bury behavior
var BURY_LIST_PARAM_NAME = 'productsToBury' // Input parameter name containing comma-separated product IDs
var BURY_FIELD_NAME = 'id' // Solr field name to apply negative boost against
var BURY_MAX = 0.1; // First item in the list gets this boost value (most buried)
var BURY_MIN = 0.5; // Last item in the list gets this boost value (least buried)
var isDebug = false
function logIfDebug(m){if(isDebug && m)logger.info(m, Array.prototype.slice.call(arguments).slice(1));}
/**
* FUSION QUERY PIPELINE STAGE: Parameter List to Bury Documents
*
* Converts a comma-separated list of product IDs into multiplicative boost
* parameters with values less than 1.0 to bury/demote documents in search results.
*
* BOOST METHODOLOGY:
* Uses the 'boost' parameter instead of 'bq' because:
* - boost: Applies multiplicative scoring (score = original_score * boost_value)
* - bq: Applies additive scoring (score = original_score + boost_value)
*
* The eDisMax query parser (Fusion's default) does not support negative boost values.
* By using multiplicative boost with values < 1.0, we can reduce document scores
* to a percentage of their original relevance score, effectively burying them
* without using prohibited negative values.
*
* SCORING IMPACT:
* - boost=0.1 reduces score to 10% of original (most buried)
* - boost=0.5 reduces score to 50% of original (moderately buried)
* - boost=1.0 leaves score unchanged (no effect)
*
* EXAMPLE TRANSFORMATION:
* Input: productsToBury=ABC123,DEF456,GHI789
* Output: boost=query({!lucene q.op=OR v='id:("ABC123"^=0.100 "DEF456"^=0.300 "GHI789"^=0.500)'},1.0)
*
* Result: ABC123 documents score at 10% of original relevance,
* DEF456 documents score at 30% of original relevance,
* GHI789 documents score at 50% of original relevance
*/

var gap = (BURY_MIN - BURY_MAX) / Math.max(buryList.length - 1, 1)
var buryAmount = BURY_MAX
// Build multiplicative boost query using lucene syntax

})();
Manipulate the response object
This example demonstrates how to add a new field to the response that contains the lowercase version of an existing field. It uses theAbstractResponse class to manipulate response documents, which works for both XML and JSON responses for versatility.
/* globals Java, logger*/
//JavaScript (ES5.1)

"use strict"; // avoid globals!
var isDebug = true

*/
return function main(request, response, ctx, collection, solrServer, solrServerFactory) {
// Get the AbstractResponse from the response wrapper
var abstractResponse = response.getInnerResponse()
// Get all documents from the response
var documents = abstractResponse.getDocuments()
// Process each document
for (var i = 0; i < documents.size(); i++) {
var doc = documents.get(i)
logIfDebug("looking for Category_name_s")
// Check if the source field exists
if (doc.containsField('Category_Name_s')) {
var sourceValue = doc.getField('Category_Name_s')
// Handle different field value types (single value vs array)
var lowercaseValue
if (sourceValue instanceof List) {
// Handle multi-valued field
lowercaseValue = []
for (var j = 0; j < sourceValue.size(); j++) {
var val = sourceValue.get(j)
lowercaseValue.push(val ? val.toString().toLowerCase() : val)
}
} else {

abstractResponse.updateDocuments(documents)
logIfDebug("Processed {} documents for field manipulation", documents.size())
};
})();
Boost the products in a list
This example demonstrates how to boost specific products in search results based on a comma-separated list of product IDs. It uses thebq parameter to apply boosts, which allows for precise ranking control in search results.
The boost values are linearly distributed between a maximum and minimum value, allowing for a smooth decrease in boost as the list progresses.
This is useful for merchandising control, promotional campaigns, or A/B testing different product arrangements.
/* globals Java, logger*/
//JavaScript (ES5.1)
//Nashorn 1.8.0_132
(function () {
"use strict";
// Configuration constants for boost behavior
var BOOST_LIST_PARAM_NAME = 'productsToBoost' // Input parameter name containing comma-separated product IDs
var BOOST_FIELD_NAME = 'id' // Solr field name to boost against
var BOOST_MAX = 1000000; // First item in the list gets this boost value
var BOOST_MIN = 700000; // Last item in the list gets this boost value
/**
* FUSION QUERY PIPELINE STAGE: Parameter List to Boost Query Converter
*
* PURPOSE:
* Converts a comma-separated list of product IDs into individual Solr boost queries (bq parameters)
* with linearly decreasing boost values. This enables merchandising control by boosting specific
* products in search results with precise ranking control.
*
* FUNCTIONALITY:
* - Reads the 'productsToBoost' parameter from the request
* - Splits comma-separated values into an array
* - Calculates linear boost gap: (BOOST_MAX - BOOST_MIN) / list_length
* - Generates individual bq parameters for each product ID
* - First item gets maximum boost (1,000,000)
* - Last item gets minimum boost (700,000)
* - Intermediate items get linearly decreasing boost values
*
* EXAMPLE TRANSFORMATION:
* Input: productsToBoost=ABC123,DEF456,GHI789
* Output: bq=(id:ABC123)^1000000
* bq=(id:DEF456)^850000
* bq=(id:GHI789)^700000
*
* USE CASES:
* - Product merchandising and promotional campaigns
* - A/B testing different product arrangements
* - Personalization based on user preferences
* - Inventory management (promoting high-stock items)
*
* PIPELINE PLACEMENT:
* Should be placed before the Solr Query stage to ensure boost queries are included
* in the final query execution.
*
* DEBUG OUTPUT:
* - aDebug.gap: Shows the calculated boost gap between items
* - aDebug.listLen: Shows the number of items in the boost list
*
* @param {Request} request - Query request object containing boost parameters
* @param {Response} response - Query response object (not modified by this stage)
* @param {Context} ctx - Pipeline context object for state management
* @param {String} collection - Collection name being queried
* @param {SolrClient} solrServer - Solr client instance
* @param {SolrClientFactory} solrServerFactory - Solr client factory
*/
return function(request, response, ctx, collection, solrServer, solrServerFactory) {
// Extract the comma-separated product list from request parameters
var paramVal = request.getFirstParam(BOOST_LIST_PARAM_NAME)
// Exit early if parameter is missing or empty

Boost products using Solr’s Query Elevation Component (QEC)
This example demonstrates how to elevate specific products in search results using the Query Elevation Component (QEC) in Solr. It converts a comma-separated list of product IDs into theelevateIds parameter format required by Solr’s QEC, allowing specific documents to be promoted to the top of search results.
This is useful for merchandising control, promotional campaigns, or editorial control over search result ranking.
/* globals Java, logger*/
//JavaScript (ES5.1)
//Nashorn 1.8.0_132
(function () {
"use strict";
// Configuration constant for input parameter name
var BOOST_LIST_PARAM_NAME = 'productsToBoost'; // Parameter containing comma-separated product IDs
/**
* FUSION QUERY PIPELINE STAGE: Parameter List to Solr Query Elevation Component
*
* PURPOSE:
* Converts a comma-separated list of product IDs from the 'productsToBoost' parameter
* into the 'elevateIds' parameter format required by Solr's Query Elevation Component (QEC).
* This enables merchandising control by promoting specific documents to the top of
* search results regardless of their relevance scores.
*
* SOLR QEC INTEGRATION:
* Works with Solr's Query Elevation Component (QEC) which allows administrators to
* configure the top results for a given query. Documents specified in 'elevateIds'
* will appear at the top of search results in the order specified.
*
* Reference: https://solr.apache.org/guide/solr/latest/query-guide/query-elevation-component.html
*
* FUNCTIONALITY:
* - Reads the 'productsToBoost' parameter from the request
* - Appends the product IDs to any existing 'elevateIds' parameter
* - Adds the '[elevated]' pseudo-field to the field list (fl) for result identification
* - Maintains existing elevated IDs if already present in the request
*
* EXAMPLE TRANSFORMATION:
* Input: productsToBoost=ABC123,DEF456,GHI789
* Output: elevateIds=ABC123,DEF456,GHI789
* fl=[elevated] (added to existing fl parameter)
*
* If elevateIds already exists:
* Input: elevateIds=XYZ999
* productsToBoost=ABC123,DEF456
* Output: elevateIds=XYZ999,ABC123,DEF456
*
* QEC BEHAVIOR:
* - Elevated documents appear at the top of results in the specified order
* - The '[elevated]' field in results indicates which documents were elevated
* - Original relevance scoring is preserved for non-elevated documents
* - Elevated documents maintain their relative order regardless of query relevance
*
* USE CASES:
* - Product merchandising and promotional campaigns
* - Editorial control over search result ranking
* - Featured content promotion
* - Seasonal or time-sensitive product placement
* - A/B testing with guaranteed top placement
*
* PIPELINE PLACEMENT:
* Should be placed before the Solr Query stage to ensure elevated IDs are
* processed by the Query Elevation Component during query execution.
*
* SOLR CONFIGURATION REQUIREMENTS:
* - Query Elevation Component must be configured in solrconfig.xml
* - QEC should be included in the request handler chain
* - elevate.xml file may be used for static elevations
*
* @param {Request} request - Query request object containing elevation parameters
* @param {Response} response - Query response object (not modified by this stage)
* @param {Context} ctx - Pipeline context object for state management
* @param {String} collection - Collection name being queried
* @param {SolrClient} solrServer - Solr client instance
* @param {SolrClientFactory} solrServerFactory - Solr client factory

Query pipeline stage condition examples
Stages can be triggered conditionally when a script in the Condition field evaluates to true. Some examples are shown below. Run this stage only for mobile clients:params.deviceType === "mobile"
params.debug === "true"
params.q && params.q.includes("sale")
request.hasParam("fusion-user-name") && request.getFirstParam("fusion-user-name").equals("SuperUser");
!request.hasParam("isFusionPluginQuery")
Configuration
When entering configuration values in the UI, use unescaped characters, such as
\t for the tab character. When entering configuration values in the API, use escaped characters, such as \\t for the tab character.
