Hi, I'm currently running into issues creating a solr query to try and boost on two ExternalFileFields. The following query seems to work, but is extremely long and repeats query terms and does not use what I would like to use.
http://localhost/solr/Index/select?fl=field(externalFileField1),field(externalFileField2),score&q={!boost%20b=map(field(externalFileField1),5,15,10,3)}term+{!boost%20b=map(field(externalFileField2),70,90,25,1)}term I would like to use bq instead of {!boost b=myBoostFunction()} format as you can see I am repeating the term again according to the following tutorial the formats should be compatible. http://nolanlawson.com/2012/06/02/comparing-boost-methods-in-solr/ sample query http://localhost/solr/Index/select?q=*&fl=field(externalFileField1),_val1_:map(field(externalFileField2),5,15,10,3),_val2_:map(field(externalFileField2),70,90,25,1),field(externalFileField2),score&bq=_val_:map(field(externalFileField1),5,15,10,3)%20_val1_:map(field(externalFileField2),70,90,25,1) This does not seem to work and returns documents ranked by the primary keys. I have tried to make multiple queries using bq using a external file field and boosting does not seem to work. An additional requirement I have, is to boost on specific range for the ExternalFileField and the map function helps achieve this. Any help is greatly appreciated. Regards, Parnit
