Hi Brian, I don't know if I understand what you are trying to achieve. You
want the term query "abcdefg" to have an idf of 1 insead of 7? I think using
the KeywordTokenizerFilterFactory at query time should work. I would be
something like:
<fieldType name="edgengram" class="solr.TextField"
positionIncrementGap="1000">
<analyzer type="index">
<tokenizer class="solr.LowerCaseTokenizerFactory" />
<filter class="solr.EdgeNGramFilterFactory" minGramSize="1"
maxGramSize="25" side="front" />
</analyzer>
<analyzer type="query">
<tokenizer class="solr.KeywordTokenizerFactory" />
</analyzer>
</fieldType>
this way, at query time "abcdefg" won't be turned to "a ab abc abcd abcde
abcdef abcdefg". At index time it will.
Regards,
Tomás
