Is there a way to avoid search files under the hidden folder?

gaosh

I have a  hidden folder (HiddenInNavigation) under the workspace which hosts many normal files which i don't want to be searched.   But the default searcher always searches these files.

I don't want to make all these files having  the "HiddenInNavigation"  facet. 

So, is there any way to avoid search normal files under the hidden folder?

EDIT: I apologize, I misunderstood your question. So of course you could also add the "HiddenInNavigation" facet to those child documents. Another option, if the folder is fairly static (i.e. you're not dynamically creating lots of them) is to filter via ecm:path to exclude that folder, or the filter via ecm:parentId or ecm:ancestorId.

As for the "default searcher" my suggestion would be to replace it. Disable the OOTB Drawer item in Studio Designer and create your own Page Provider and Search that does what you need (as opposed to trying to override the OOTB search, which uses a generic Page Provider that's used in lots of other places so you probably don't want to mess with it).

Old answer below:

Use the "ecm:mixinType" property to filter for any facets you want or don't want. E.g.

SELECT * FROM DOCUMENT WHERE ecm:mixinType != 'HiddenInNavigation'
