: I have computed pagerank offline for document set dump. I ideally : want to use pagerank and solr relevency score together in formula to : sort search solr result. I have already looked at : http://wiki.apache.org/solr/SolrRelevancyFAQ#How_can_I_increase_the_score_for_specific_documents : and found that indextimeboost is useful. I want to know how can I use : indextimeboost ?
i would strongly suggest thta instead of using "index time boost" you use a boost function on a numeric field (the very next section of that SolrRelevancyFAQ) I've updated the page to try and make this alternative method more obvious, and mentioned the use of ExternalFileField (for the case where you want to be able to update these rankings w/o reindexing) http://wiki.apache.org/solr/SolrRelevancyFAQ#How_can_I_increase_the_score_for_specific_documents http://wiki.apache.org/solr/SolrRelevancyFAQ#How_can_I_change_the_score_of_a_document_based_on_the_.2Avalue.2A_of_a_field_.28say.2C_.22popularity.22.29 -Hoss
