DESCRIPTION

Documents are the unit of indexing and search, and each document is a set of fields. Each field has a name and a textual value.

A field may be stored with the document, in which case it is returned with search hits on the document. Thus each document should typically contain stored fields which uniquely identify it.

        $document->add( Plucene::Document::Field $field);

This will add a field to the document.
