Hi, I wanted to inquire if anybody would find an update flag useful that
only replaced the subset of data (ie a certain field) getting passed in,
instead of the whole record.  

 

Pseudo-code for what I'm describing:

 

<id>125125</id>

<update-partial>true</update-partial>

------------------------

+ <language>RU</language>

------------------------

- <language>EN</language>

 

Instead of deleting and reinserting an entire document, which is ostensibly
what SOLR does each time an update is performed, it's sometimes preferable
to simply replace a single field's value like one does in a database.  

 

Any thoughts on the feasibility or limitations of this?

 

Brian
