I have looked at many examples on how to do what I want, but they tend to only
show fragments or they
are based on older versions of Solr. I'm hoping there are new features that
make what I'm doing easier.
I am running version 6.5 and am testing by running in cloud mode but only on a
single machine.
Basically, I have a large number of documents stored as JSON in individual
files. I want to take that JSON
document and index it without having to do any pre-processing, etc. I also need
to be able to write newly indexed
JSON data back to individual files in the same format.
For example, let's say I have a json document that looks like the following:
{
"id" : "bb903493-55b0-421f-a83e-2199ea11e136",
"productName_s" : "UsefulWidget",
"productCategory_s" : "tool",
"suppliers" : [
{
"id" : " bb903493-55b0-421f-a83e-2199ea11e221",
"name_s" : "Acme Tools",
"productNumber_s" : "10342UW"
}, {
"id" : " bb903493-55b0-421a-a83e-2199ea11e445",
"name_s" : "Snappy Tools",
"productNumber_s" : "ST-X100023"
}
],
"resellers" : [
{
"id" : "cc 903493-55b0-421f-a83e-2199ea11e221",
"name_s" : "Target",
"productSKU_s" : "TA092310342UW"
}, {
"id" : "bc903493-55b0-421a-a83e-2199ea11e445",
"name_s" : "Wal-Mart",
"productSKU_s" : "029342ABLSWM"
}
]
}
I know I can use the /update/json/docs handler to insert the above but from
what I understand, I'd have to set up parameters
telling it how to split the children, etc. Though that is a bit of a pain, I
can make that happen.
The problem is that, when I then try to query for the data, it comes back with
_childDocuments_ instead of the names of the
child document lists. So, how can I have Solr return the document as it was
originally indexed (I know it would be embedded
in the results structure, but I can deal with that)?
I am running version 6.5 and I am hoping there is a method I haven't seen
documented that can do this. If not, can someone
point me to some examples of how to do this another way.
If there is no easy way to do this with the current version, can someone point
me to a good resource for writing my own
handlers?
Thank you.
