The generic problem with all the "semi-structured" documents is that the meta-data has no consistent naming. Making up names here, but Word might have "created_on", PDF "created" etc. Its really frustrating, but each type has to be investigated to figure out which field you want to map to "created". Tika and SolrCel just map what they find.
On way to go about this is to map the dynamic glob pattern to a stored field, then look at what pops out. Not satisfactory, but... <dynamicField name="*" type="string" stored="true" multiValued="true" /> Best, Erick On Wed, Apr 22, 2015 at 5:44 AM, Eric Meisler <eric.meis...@veritablelp.com> wrote: > Sorry if my question was too vague.
