I have two indices - one contains "document" objects with `_id=<url of the document>`, e.g. `http://site/folder/document_name.doc` ; the other contains "folder" objects with `_id=<url of the folder>`, e.g. `http://site/folder`

In my node.js script I need to match documents to folders, i.e. I search for all folder urls, and then for each of them I search for all documents which urls start with the folder url

I can't seem to be able to construct the right query that will return all documents which \_id starts with `http://site/folder`

Any ideas?
