# Reverse Index
The reverse index contains a mapping from word to document id.
There are two tiers of this index.
* A priority index which only indexes terms that are flagged with priority flags<sup>1</sup>.
* A full index that indexes all terms.
The full index also provides access to term-level metadata, while the priority index is a binary index that only offers information about which documents has a specific word.
[1] See WordFlags in [common/model](../../common/model/) and
KeywordMetadata in [features-convert/keyword-extraction](../../features-convert/keyword-extraction).
## Central Classes
* [ReverseIndexFullConverter](src/main/java/nu/marginalia/index/full/ReverseIndexFullConverter.java) constructs the full index.
* [ReverseIndexFullReader](src/main/java/nu/marginalia/index/full/ReverseIndexFullReader.java) interrogates the full index.
* [ReverseIndexPriorityConverter](src/main/java/nu/marginalia/index/priority/ReverseIndexPriorityConverter.java) constructs the priority index.
* [ReverseIndexPriorityReader](src/main/java/nu/marginalia/index/priority/ReverseIndexPriorityReader.java) interrogates the priority index.
