: There is a possible solution here: : https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LUCENE-2347 (Dump WordNet to SOLR : Synonym format).
If you have WordNet synonyms you do't need any special code/tools to convert them -- the current solr.SynonymFilterFactory supports wordnet files (just specify format="wordnet") : > > Does anyone knows any faster method of populating the synonyms.txt file : > > instead of manually typing in the words into the file, which there could : > be : > > thousands of synonyms around? populate from what? what is hte source of your data? the default solr synonym file format is about as simple as it could possibly be -- pretty trivial to generate it from scripts -- the hard part is usually selecting the synonym data you want to use and parsing whatever format it is already in. -Hoss http://www.lucidworks.com/
