Keith Laban commented on SOLR-8220:
-----------------------------------
[[email protected]]: re. * vs **
I'm all for using just one glob pattern {{*}} for both doc values and stored,
however I think its worth it to consider the philosophical implications on
backwards compat. While it won't break anything it does introduce some
unexpected behavior without much warning or a way to disable it.
I propose we add a {{fl.wildcardDV=true}} option to turn on this behavior in
Solr 5x but enable it by default in 6. We can optionally later add a field type
option where you can use docValues but not have the field returned in your
result set.
Ishan I can tackle those.
Regarding my earlier update about modifying {{Field}}, its doesn't seem as
trivial as I originally thought as {{createField}} doesn't set
{{DocValuesType}} there is a separate field that gets created for doc values
after {{createField}} is called for the first time. I'm not sure what the
implications of modifying this behavior would be. I think it's ok to leave this
limitation in for now.

> Many times a value will be both stored="true" and docValues="true" which
> requires redundant data to be stored on disk. Since reading from docValues is
> both efficient and a common practice (facets, analytics, streaming, etc),
> reading values from docValues when a stored version of the field does not
> exist would be a valuable disk usage optimization.
> The only caveat with this that I can see would be for multiValued fields as
> they would always be returned sorted in the docValues approach. I believe
> this is a fair compromise.
> I've done a rough implementation for this as a field transform, but I think
> it should live closer to where stored fields are loaded in the
> SolrIndexSearcher.
> Two open questions/observations:
> 1) There doesn't seem to be a standard way to read values for docValues,
> facets, analytics, streaming, etc, all seem to be doing their own ways,
> perhaps some of this logic should be centralized.
> 2) What will the API behavior be? (Below is my proposed implementation)
> Parameters for fl:
> - fl="docValueField"
> -- return field from docValue if the field is not stored and in docValues,
> if the field is stored return it from stored fields
> - fl="*"
> -- return only stored fields
> - fl="+"
> -- return stored fields and docValue fields
> 2a - would be easiest implementation and might be sufficient for a first
> pass. 2b - is current behavior
