# KinoSearch::Document::Doc(3pm)

a document

## NAME

KinoSearch::Document::Doc - a document

## SYNOPSIS

```
    my $doc = $invindexer->new_doc;
    $doc->set_value( title    => $title );
    $doc->set_value( bodytext => $bodytext );
    $invindexer->add($doc);
```

## DESCRIPTION

In KinoSearch, a Doc object is akin to a row in a database, in that it is made up of several fields, each of which has a value.

Doc objects are only created via factory methods of other classes.

## METHODS

### set\_value get\_value

```
    $doc->set_value( title => $title_text );
    my $text = $doc->get_value( 'title' );
```

`"set_value"` and `"get_value"` are used to modify and access the values of the fields within a Doc object.

### set\_boost get\_boost

```
    $doc->set_boost(2.5);
```

`"boost"` is a scoring multiplier.  Setting boost to something other than 1 causes a document to score better or worse against a given query relative to other documents.
