SOLR 4.3.1?

When is 4.3.1 coming out? -- Bill Bell billnb...@gmail.com cell 720-256-8076

sort=geodist() asc

This simple feature of "sort=geodist() asc" is very powerful since it enables us to move from SOLR 3 to SOLR 4 without rewriting all our queries. We also use boost=geodist() in some cases, and some bf/bq. bf=recip(geodist(),2,200,20)&sort=score desc

Re: Adding pdf/word file using JSON/XML

I won't assert "total" mastery as a requirement. Degrees of mastery are sufficient. But even then, even "partial" mastery of some rather basic areas of Solor can be quite daunting. It is enlightening to consider just how many nooks and crannies of Solr there are to master, and how many reasona

Re: Best way to match umlauts

One small thing: German u-umlaut is often "flattened" as 'ue' instead of 'u'. And the same with o-umlaut, it can be 'oe' or 'o'. I don't know if Lucene has a good solution for this problem. On 06/16/2013 06:44 AM, adityab wrote: Thanks for the explanation Steve. I now see it clearly. In my cas

Re: Adding pdf/word file using JSON/XML

No, they just learned a few features and then stopped because it was "good enough", and they had a thousand other things to code. As to REST- yes, it is worth having a coherent API. Solr is behind the curve here. Look at the HATEOS paradigm. It's ornate (and a really goofy name) but it provide

Re: Adding pdf/word file using JSON/XML

1. Total mastery of a product is a strange requirement. That would would be a huge trivia contest that would include all the vestigial bad bits. For example, I feel no need to master the Porter stemmer. I have no idea how to do geo search in Solr, though I'm sure I could learn it pretty quickly

Re: Adding pdf/word file using JSON/XML

I'm share the yonik's opinion that a pure REST application is in some cases is a pain in the ass. But like Jack referred, exists some cases where REST is more expressive and is easy to understand what are you doing. At this point, I think that is more important make the actual API more stable

Re: Adding pdf/word file using JSON/XML

Exactly. For the case in point that is the real, underlying subject of this thread, the desire is to partially update an existing Solr document using the output of SolrCell/Tika. With true/pure REST, that should be the HTTP "PUT" verb. And the path would indicate the collection and key value.

Re: Adding pdf/word file using JSON/XML

Jan, you made no mention of "mastering" Solr - which was the crux of my comments. I think everyone agrees that anyone can download and "use" Solr, in a basic sense, with minimal effort. The issue is how far the average application developer can get beyond "start" towards "mastery" without a de

Re: Adding pdf/word file using JSON/XML

Yeah, this is yet another "anti-pattern" we need to be discouraging - large multivalued fields. They indicate that the data model is not well balanced and aligned with the strengths of Solr and Lucene. -- Jack Krupansky -Original Message- From: adityab Sent: Sunday, June 16, 2013 9:3

Re: Solr using a ridiculous amount of memory

It was interesting to read this post. I had similar issue on Solr v4.2.1. The nature of our document is that it has huge multiValued fields and we were able to knock off out server in about 30muns We then found a bug "Lucene-4995" which was causing all the problem. Applying the patch has helped a

Re: Solr large boolean filter

Whenever I see one of this "big" query filters, my first thought is that there is something wrong with the application data model. Where do the long list of IDs come from? Somebody must be generating and/or storing them, right? Why not store them in Solr, right in the data model? Maybe store

Re: New operator.

It all depends on what you mean by an "operator". Start by describing in more detail what problem you are trying to solve. And how do you expect your users or applications to use this "operator". Give some examples. Solr and Lucene do not have "operators" per say, except in query parser synt

You're mixing things up pretty thoroughly SolrCloud with leaders and replicas is orthogonal to Master/Slave setups, generally people use one or the other. Master/Slave setups don't get NRT updates at all. I'm a little surprised that your setup works, it sounds like you have replication set up

Re: in Solr 3.5, optimization increase the index size to double

Optimzing will _temporarily_ double the index size, but it shouldn't be permanent. Is it possible that you have inadvertently told Solr to keep an extra snapshot? I think it's "numberToKeep" in your replication handler, but I'm going from memory here. Best Erick On Fri, Jun 14, 2013 at 2:15 AM,
