One way I had thought of doing this kind of thing: include in the index an "ACL" of some sort. The problem I see in your case is that the list if "friends" can presumably change over time.
So, given that, one way would be to have a little application in between. The request goes to the application, which does the query, and then filters out the results based upon friendship. I suppose it might be possible to write a specialized class which acts as a filter (and is so identified in the Solr schema) which queries the database. In any event, I doubt you can get Solr to do this by itself without some code because of the likely dynamic nature of the "friendship" JRJ -----Original Message----- From: directorscott [mailto:dgul...@gmail.com] Sent: Wednesday, August 24, 2011 4:47 AM To: solr-user@lucene.apache.org Subject: query Hello, In my application, users prepare documents and they can share them with friends. Friendships between users are persisted in database. When a user issues a search, system should bring only those documents which are prepared by friends of the user who makes the search. Can anyone please show me the path to achieve such use case? I am considering about concatenating friend id's and index them as 1 column but i am new to SOLR and i would love to find out the other options.
