Thanks for your replies Ahmet and Joel!
We have now determined that the exclamation point wasn't the issues, and
our query actually had too many boolean expressions in (more than the
default 1024).
Apologies for any confusion this may have caused - the issue went around
my team like the childhood game of telephone, and the initial problem of
the "too many boolean expressions" was thought to have appeared due to
the "!", when in fact some other code had been committed which didn't
batch large delete by id queries. This caused us to start looking for a
solution to a problem that didn't exist :-)
Thanks again for the quick response!
Best wishes,
Daniel

Hi Daniel,
TermQueryParser comes handy when you don't want to escape.
q = {!term

Hi,
I'm in the process of migrating an application that queries Solr to use
a new sharded SolrCloud, and as part of this I'm adding the shard key to
the document id when we index documents (as we're using grouping and we
need to ensure that grouped documents end up on the same shard) e.g.
156a05d1-8ebe-4f3c-b548-60a84d167a16!643fd57c-c65e-4929-bc0e-029aa4f07475
I'm having a problem with my application when searching by id with SolrJ
CloudSolrServer - the exclamation point is misinterpreted as a boolean
negation, and the matching document is not returned in the search results.
I just wanted to check if the only way to make this work would be to
escape the exclamation point (i.e. prefix with a slash, or enclose the
id within quotes). We're keen to avoid this, as this will require lots
of modifications throughout the code on a series of applications that
interact with Solr.
If anyone has any better suggestions on how to achieve this it would be
very much appreciated!
Best wishes,
Daniel
