Lucene index field value stripped of all html tags

I have a Lucene index in which one of the fields is displayed in the Sitecore rich text box.

Since this field value contains html content for most elements sharing the template, I expected the html content to be returned when the element field value was retrieved. However, I noticed that the return value is devoid of all html tags.

I tried changing INDEXTYPE to "UNTOKENTIZED". But this did not solve the problem. I understand that Lucene is doing this to allow searches based on this area. But this is not a requirement in my case, and I want this behavior to be redefined.

This is because there is a RichTextFieldReader assigned to the html and rich text fields:

 <fieldReader fieldTypeName="html|rich text" fieldNameFormat="{0}" fieldReaderType="Sitecore.ContentSearch.FieldReaders.RichTextFieldReader, Sitecore.ContentSearch" />

In Sitecore 8.1, it is defined in Sitecore.ContentSearch.Lucene.DefaultIndexConfiguration.config .

It removes all tags using HtmlField.GetPlainText() .

You can try adding another section at the same level as <mapFieldByTypeName hint="raw:AddFieldReaderByFieldTypeName"> , and use something like:

 <mapFieldByFieldName hint="AddFieldReaderByFieldName"> <fieldReader fieldName="yourFieldName" fieldReaderType="Sitecore.ContentSearch.FieldReaders.DefaultFieldReader, Sitecore.ContentSearch" />

Mapping with fieldName takes precedence over matching by field type, so it will use the fieldRendered specified for your field, instead of using the one specified for your field type.

You should be able to create a computed index field, and this should save the HTML correctly in the index.

 public class TileHtml : IComputedIndexField { public object ComputeFieldValue(IIndexable indexable) { Item indexedContent = indexable as SitecoreIndexableItem; if (indexedContent != null && indexedContent.Fields[ITileConstants.TileHtmlFieldName] != null && !string.IsNullOrWhiteSpace(indexedContent.Fields[ITileConstants.TileHtmlFieldName].Value)) { return indexedContent.Fields[ITileConstants.TileHtmlFieldName].Value; } return null; } public string FieldName { get; set; } public string ReturnType { get; set; } }

You can then register the application in your Lucene index.

 <fields hint="raw:AddComputedIndexField"> <field fieldName="TileHtml" storageType="YES" indexType="TOKENIZED">Namespace.TileHtml, Assembly</field>
