: I tried it with the example json documents, and even if I add : overwrite=false to the URL, it still overwrites. : : Do this twice: : curl 'http://localhost:8983/solr/update/json?commit=true&overwrite=false' --data-binary @books.json -H 'Content-type:application/json'
...the JSON Update Request Handler doesn't have any docs suggesting that you can specify "overwrite" in the URL. the CSVUpdateRequestHandler supports a lot of options in the URL because it doesn't have any way of specifying them as part of the content stream, but both the XML and JSON formats look for these options as part of hte individual "add" commands. There is a specifica example of using "overwrite" on the JSON Wiki page... http://wiki.apache.org/solr/UpdateJSON?highlight=%28overwrite%29#Update_Commands ...that said, it would certianly be nice if the default value for all of the options that can be specified as part of the data payloads for XML/JSON ("overwrite", "commitWithin", "boost", etc...) could be specified in the URL ... feel free to open a Jira requesting this. -Hoss
