I am about to attempt to implementing the SpanQuery in Solr 1.4.
I noticed there is a JIRA to add it in 1.5: * https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SOLR-1337 I also noticed a couple of email threads from Grant and Yonik about trying to implement it such as: * http://old.nabble.com/SpanQuery-support-td15246477.html So . . . * Question: Has anyone started working on SOLR-1337 for Solr 1.5? And if not . . . * Question: Is the best way to go about it is to follow the following recipe? 1. Configure a. Specify a new parser plugin in solrconfig.xml: b. <queryParser name="mySpanQueryParser" class="SpanQueryParserPlugin"/> 2. Implement a. Use the FooQParserPlugin as a starting template (https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/lucene/solr/trunk/src/test/org/apache/solr /core/SOLR749Test.java) 3. Access a. Access the current query type via 'q=mySpanQueryParser ' Most grateful for any thoughts, Christopher
