## Interface InputIterator

- All Superinterfaces:
    BytesRefIterator
  All Known Implementing Classes:
    BufferedInputIterator, DocumentDictionary.DocumentInputIterator, InputIterator.InputIteratorWrapper, SortedInputIterator, UnsortedInputIterator

      public interface InputIterator
      extends BytesRefIterator

  Interface for enumerating term,weight,payload triples for suggester consumption; currently only `AnalyzingSuggester`, `FuzzySuggester` and `AnalyzingInfixSuggester` support payloads.

- - ### Nested Class Summary

    Nested Classes
    Modifier and Type | Interface and Description
    --- | ---
    `static class` | `InputIterator.InputIteratorWrapper` Wraps a BytesRefIterator as a suggester InputIterator, with all weights set to `1` and carries no payload

  - ### Field Summary

    Fields
    Modifier and Type | Field and Description
    --- | ---
    `static InputIterator` | `EMPTY` Singleton InputIterator that iterates over 0 BytesRefs.

  - ### Method Summary

    All Methods Instance Methods Abstract Methods
    Modifier and Type | Method and Description
    --- | ---
    `Set<BytesRef>` | `contexts()` A term's contexts context can be used to filter suggestions.
    `boolean` | `hasContexts()` Returns true if the iterator has contexts
    `boolean` | `hasPayloads()` Returns true if the iterator has payloads
    `BytesRef` | `payload()` An arbitrary byte[] to record per suggestion.
    `long` | `weight()` A term's weight, higher numbers mean better suggestions.

- - ### Field Detail

    - #### EMPTY

          static final InputIterator EMPTY

      Singleton InputIterator that iterates over 0 BytesRefs.

  - ### Method Detail

    - #### weight

          long weight()

      A term's weight, higher numbers mean better suggestions.

    - #### payload

          BytesRef payload()

      An arbitrary byte[] to record per suggestion. See `Lookup.LookupResult.payload` to retrieve the payload for each suggestion.

    - #### hasPayloads

          boolean hasPayloads()

      Returns true if the iterator has payloads

    - #### contexts

          Set<BytesRef> contexts()

      A term's contexts context can be used to filter suggestions. May return null, if suggest entries do not have any context

    - #### hasContexts

          boolean hasContexts()

      Returns true if the iterator has contexts
