Hi, there, I found the following post on the web. Is this still the simplest get-around to retrieve all documents in an index? (I'm asking just in case I don't know there's a more standard way to do that now.)
thanks, -Hui >From "Fuad Efendi" < [EMAIL PROTECTED]> Subject RE: MatchAllDocsQuery in solr? Date Wed, 29 Nov 2006 01:58:25 GMT Workaround ========== Define a field <field name="match_all">abcd</field> with constant value 'abcd' for all documents (choose value not listed in any 'stop-word' etc.). Lucene query 'scan_all:abcd' will retrieve 'all' documents. Enjoy! -----Original Message----- From: Tom Sent: Tuesday, November 21, 2006 5:08 PM To: solr-user@lucene.apache.org Subject: MatchAllDocsQuery in solr? Is there a way to do a match all docs query in solr? I mean is there something I can put in a solr URL that will get recognized by the SolrQueryParser as meaning a "match all"? Why? Because I'm porting unit tests from our internal Lucene container to Solr, and the tests usually run such a query, upon completion, to make sure the index is in the expected state (nothing missing, nothing extra). Yes, I can create a query that will match all my docs, there are a few fields that have a relatively small range of values. I was just looking for a standard way to do it first. Thanks, Tom
