: Anyone knows useful method to disable or prohibit the per-field override : features for the search components? If not, where to start to make it : configurable via solrconfig and attempt to come up with a working patch?
If your goal is to prevent *clients* from specifying these (while you're still allowed to use them in your defaults) then the simplest solution is probably something external to Solr -- along the lines of mod_rewrite. Internally... that would be tough. You could probably write a SearchComponent (configured to run "first") that does it fairly easily -- just wrap the SolrParams in an impl that retuns null anytime a component asks for a param name that starts with "f." (and excludes those param names when asked for a list of the param names) It could probably be generalized to support arbitrary rules i na way that might be handy for other folks, but it would still just be wrapping all of hte params, so it would prevent you from using them in your config as well. Ultimatley i think a general solution would need to be in RequestHandlerBase ... where it wraps the request params using the defaults and invariants ... you'd want the custom exclusion rules to apply only to the request params from the client. -Hoss
