It's unfortunate, but the official Solr reference guide does not have a table of contents: http://mirror.olnevhost.net/pub/apache/lucene/solr/ref-guide/apache-solr-ref-guide-5.3.pdf https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/solr/Apache+Solr+Reference+Guide
My Solr 4.4 Deep Dive is now a little outdated (since 4.4) and even then was not complete (no SolrCloud or DIH), but its table of contents would probably give you a fair view of the sheer magnitude of the number of Solr features: http://www.lulu.com/shop/jack-krupansky/solr-4x-deep-dive-early-access-release-7/ebook/product-21203548.html It probably still has the most in-depth coverage and examples for token analysis and update processors, even though more recent Solr changes are not covered. -- Jack Krupansky On Thu, Nov 5, 2015 at 9:18 AM, Alexandre Rafalovitch <arafa...@gmail.com> wrote: > Glad you liked it. > > The problem with your request is that it is not clear what you already > know and in which direction you are trying to go.
