Hi,

I am indexing data from a mysql data source. Each record contains the
field "country". I am looking for a suitable way to create a field
"continent" at indexing time. A list with the information country ->
continent is given.

Writing a script and calling it as a transformer in the sql query  would
be my solution of choice right now. A RegexTransformer seems to be less
elegant with 200+ different countries.

Solr indexes 10 million records, so efficiency should be kept in mind.

With my limited knowledge I might be missing the obvious solution. What
would be the best practice? Any thoughts are welcome.

Regards
Chris
