I'm evaluating SOLR and have a question about query
processing. Is it possible to set filters on fields
according to the terms entered in the query? I know that I
can use dismax to search in multiple fields. However, what I
want to achieve for a given query is the following:
- parse all terms in the query
- determine values of different fields that match these
terms
- set filters for these values
- return all documents matching the filters
Example:
documents representing cars with fields "manufacturer" and
"color"
query for "red ford" sets filters manufacturer=ford,
color=red
One can then use faceted navigation to further drill down.
So do you have an existing java program that recognizes red as color and ford
as manufacturer? And
No, I don't.
But since I'll store documents in solr having "color" set to "red",
"green", "blue" and "manufacturer" set to "ford", "bmw" etc. the
information is available.
