Bill Bell commented on SOLR-2242:
---------------------------------

Lance,

There is literally 15 lines of code changes. Not sure how you cannot follow it. 
I could use no memory and just loop through the results, but that would not be 
cached - so the speed would still be slow since I need to pull in the array in 
order to count it.

The field is not called namedistinct anymore... It is called 
facet.numFacetTerms=2,1,0.

All other parameters are good. Also you do not need anything else to get it to 
work, since I set the defaults to work for you now.

I'll see if I can write some more tests. Here is the rub: I would be happy to 
wrote hundreds of test cases if I knew someone was going to actually help me 
get this done. I am used to having a committer actually work with me - Mike 
McCandless is awesome and we worked on several issues together. But I have seen 
tons of features die when no one is willing to help. So here I am wanting, 
willing and able to get this done. And I have no one willing to assist from a 
committer perspective... The patch works fine in sharded and normal mode. So 
people can use it today. It is just not committed.

I have 4 clients using it in production and one has 100M page views a year, and 
so far no problems.

http://localhost:8983/solr/select?shards=localhost:8983/solr,localhost:7574/solr&indent=true&q=*:*&facet=true&facet.mincount=1&facet.numFacetTerms=2&facet.limit=-1&facet.field=price

> When returning facet.field=<name of field> you will get a list of matches for 
> distinct values. This is normal behavior. This patch tells you how many 
> distinct values you have (# of rows). Use with limit=-1 and mincount=1.
> The feature is called "namedistinct". Here is an example:
> http://localhost:8983/solr/select?q=*:*&facet=true&facet.field=manu&facet.mincount=1&facet.limit=-1&f.manu.facet.namedistinct=0&facet.field=price&f.price.facet.namedistinct=1
> Here is an example on field "hgid" (without namedistinct):
> {code}
> - <lst name="facet_fields">
> - <lst name="hgid">
>   <int name="HGPY0000045FD36D4000A">1</int> 
>   <int name="HGPY00000FBC6690453A9">1</int> 
>   <int name="HGPY00001E44ED6C4FB3B">1</int> 
>   <int name="HGPY00001FA631034A1B8">1</int> 
>   <int name="HGPY00003317ABAC43B48">1</int> 
>   <int name="HGPY00003A17B2294CB5A">5</int> 
>   <int name="HGPY00003ADD2B3D48C39">1</int> 
>   </lst>
>   </lst>
> {code}
> With namedistinct (HGPY0000045FD36D4000A, HGPY00000FBC6690453A9, 
> HGPY00001E44ED6C4FB3B, HGPY00001FA631034A1B8, HGPY00003317ABAC43B48, 
> HGPY00003A17B2294CB5A, HGPY00003ADD2B3D48C39). This returns number of rows 
> (7), not the number of values (11).
> {code}
> - <lst name="facet_fields">
> - <lst name="hgid">
>   <int name="_count_">7</int> 
>   </lst>
>   </lst>
> {code}
> This works actually really good to get total number of fields for a 
> group.field=hgid. Enjoy!
