I've been struggling just to get my search plugin working for sharded collections, but I haven't ascertained if my end goal is even achievable. I have a plugin that groups documents that are considered duplicates (based on multiple fields - like the CollapsingQParserPlugin). When responses come back from different shards another culling will be necessary to remove dupes between the shards. In the merge() method it seems it will be too late to simply "drop" documents. Is this something that the client will just have to deal with? Maybe in the process() method of a search component? I was expecting to be able to preserve the requested return count, but that seems really unlikely now.
Thanks for any suggestions, Ted v5.2.1 -- View this message in context: http://lucene.472066.n3.nabble.com/Can-a-MergeStrategy-filter-returned-docs-tp4290446.html Sent from the Solr - User mailing list archive at Nabble.com.
