I believe you're looking for what's called, "Matrix Counts" Please see this JIRA issue. To my knowledge it has been committed in trunk but not 3.x.
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SOLR-2898 This feature is accessed by using group.facet=true Cody -----Original Message----- From: danjfoley [mailto:d...@micamedia.com] Sent: Saturday, April 07, 2012 7:02 PM To: solr-user@lucene.apache.org Subject: Re: To truncate or not to truncate (group.truncate vs. facet) I've been searching for a solution to my issue, and this seems to come closest to it. But not exactly. I am indexing clothing. Each article of clothing comes in many sizes and colors, and can belong to any number of categories. For example take the following: I add 6 documents to solr as follows: product, color, size, category shirt A, red, small, valentines day shirt A, red, large, valentines day shirt A, blue, small, valentines day shirt A, blue, large, valentines day shirt A, green, small, valentines day shirt A, green, large, valentines day I'd like my facet counts to return as follows: color red (1) blue (1) green (1) size small (1) large (1) category valentines day (1) But they come back like this: color: red (2) blue (2) green (2) size: small (2) large (2) category valentines day (6) I see the group.facet parameter in version 4.0 does exactly this. However how can I make this happen now? There are all sorts of ecommerce systems out there that facet exactly how i'm asking. i thought solr is supposed to be the very best fastest search system, yet it doesn't seem to be able to facet correct for items with multiple values? Am i indexing my data wrong? how can i make this happen? -- View this message in context: http://lucene.472066.n3.nabble.com/To-truncate-or-not-to-truncate-group-truncate-vs-facet-tp3838797p3893744.html Sent from the Solr - User mailing list archive at Nabble.com.
