Hi Cris
I've used TZ param with UpdateXmlMessages and data are indexed with
default GMT value on field timestamp, but one hour less than current
date system.
I am doing test using command curl, so:
/curl http://10.240.234.133:8080/solr/update?TZ=Europe/Madrid
--data-binary @data.xml -H "Content-type:text/xml; charset=utf-8"/
where data.xml is a file and contains XML add message, like this:
/<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>//
//<add>//
// <doc>//
// <field name="id">00000001A_01</field>//
// <field name="key">disposition.1979.6.2</field>//
// <field name="INTERNO">00000001A</field>//
// <field name="PATH_PDF">d2</field>//
// <field name="HASH" />//
// <field name="ALGORITMO_HASH" />//
// <field name="FIRMA" />//
// <field name="FORMATO_FIRMA" />//
// </doc>//
//</add>/
The xml message not contain timestamp field and I need solr include
default value with current date system.
I am using solr version 1.4.1. May be, this solr version not allow TZ
param ?

that is *really* not a good idea ...
doing something like that means you will be putting incorrect data into
your index, saying a doc was added an hour lafter it realy was, and
assuming that later when clients query your index they will just
implicitly understand that the Date they get back in UTC is wrong
and should be interpreted in a differnet way with a 1 hour "fudge factor"
that will be even more wrong and more confusing anytime DST happens
* Solr indexes contain dates formatted in UTC
* Client's know their own TZ, and should read/write Date values Solr
formated in UTC
: Anyway, I would like to know possible configuration of TZ parameter. When you
: speak "clients can specify a "TZ" param", this means it is possible configure
: TZ parameter using solrconfig.xml or schema.xml files ??
it's not a configuration option, it's a query param that be used in
requests where DateMath is involved. so to find all documents indexed
"yesterday" according to the conventions of when a day starts in the
"Europe/Madrid" TimeZone, you can do a request like...
q=myField:[NOW-1DAY/DAY TO NOW/DAY]&TZ=Europe/Madrid
...and the *rounding* will be done realtive the specified timezone, but
the Dates in the response will still be formated in UTC -- Solr can't
assume that the client is also in Europe/Madrid, or that the client will
understand what TZ an ambigious DateTime value of "2013-03-06T12:00:00" is
in .. that's why the values are explicitly in UTC: "2013-03-06T12:00:00Z"
(note the "Z" suffix)
