I have been thinking about this some more. So my scenario of search is as follows.
A visitor types in 3 bed 2 bath condo new york Now my schema has bed, bath, property type, city. The data going in is denormalised csv files, so column headings are the fields. The search consists of a near exact match for this type of data to be a field search eg bed:3 or property type:condo. I have been experimenting on solrs auto complete functionality. And I think if I can somehow create a field (Auto_complete) that is basically a concatenation. I will use a rough excel formula to explain. Column A,B,C,D = Bed, Bath, Type, City A1=3, B1=2, C1=condo, D1=New York. In E1 I would write =concatenate(A1," ","bed"," ",B1," ","bath"," ",C1," ",D1) the value being "3 bed 2 bath condo new york" Now if I can generate this in the solr index somehow (I know I can do it in my csv files beforehand but solr might be easier) and my Autocomplete function hooks into this field (Auto_complete) if a user types in a more natural search term, it should pick this up and I dont have to try and pre process that search term beforehand.
