Hi, I'm using solr and I'm starting to index my database. I work for a book
seller, but we have a lot of different publications (i.e: different
editions from different publishers ) for the same book, and I was wondering
if it would be wise to model this "schema" using a hierarchical approach
(with nested docs). For example:
{
title: 'The hoobit',
author: 'J. R. Tolkien,
publications: [{
isbn: 9780007591855,
price: 0.99,
pages: 200
}, {
isbn: 9780007497904,
price: 4.00,
pages: 230
}
]
}
And, another question, how can I achieve this with data-import-handler ? I
found this: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SOLR-5147 (I'm using solr
5.3) and I was able to index the data, but I cannot retrieve the
publications values inside a book.
What do you think, guys ? Or is it better to forget about nested documents
and get back to the old-fashioned denormalized approach ?
Thanks.
