Hmm, looks like I'm missing something here as I cannot get this to work.
My need is as follows. From my application, I need to issue a generic
search which is limited to a set of fields based on the group the user
belongs to. For example, user-1 is in group-A which has default fields of
F1, F2, F3. User-2 is in group-B which has default fields of F2, F3, F5,
etc. What I tried to do is create multiple request handlers solrconfig.xml
like so:
<requestHandler name="/select_group_a" class="solr.SearchHandler">
<lst name="defaults">
<str name="echoParams">explicit</str>
<int name="rows">20</int>
<str name="df">F1,F2,F3</str>
<str name="fl">id,score</str>
</lst>
</requestHandler>
And
<requestHandler name="/select_group_a" class="solr.SearchHandler">
<lst name="defaults">
<str name="echoParams">explicit</str>
<int name="rows">20</int>
<str name="df">F2,F3,F5</str>
<str name="fl">id,score</str>
</lst>
</requestHandler>
However, this isn't working because whatever is in "df" is being treated as
single field name.
How can I achieve my need?
Note, I want to avoid a URL base solution (sending the list of fields over
HTTP) because the list of fields could be large (1000+) and thus I will
exceed GET limit quickly (does Solr support POST for searching, if so, than
I can use URL base solution?)
Thanks in advance.
