Hoss Man commented on SOLR-11916:
---------------------------------
{quote}[~hossman] using this field type for distributed faceting can lead to
wrong results. Maybe this should be noted in the JavaDoc or the Solr
documentation?

Interesting ... not something i'd considered. I think you need to file a new
Big for this, and then sure -- update the docs to note it as a limitation --
frankly it seems like (IIUC) the real "bug" is is that the faceting code
doesn't do it's refinement queries in a way that ensures a direct "Term" query
(and the field type doesn't know the context of what it's being asked for
during refinement, so it builds a PhraseQuery) -- ie: i'm guessing you'd see
the exact same "bug" if you faceted on a TextField where the index analyzer
used KeywordTokenizer but the query analyzer using WhitespaceTokenizer ... but
this is a conversation that should be had in a new jira.
> new SortableTextField using docValues built from the original string input

> I propose adding a new SortableTextField subclass that would functionally
> work the same as TextField except:
> * {{docValues="true|false"}} could be configured, with the default being
> "true"
> * The docValues would contain the original input values (just like StrField)
> for sorting (or faceting)
> ** By default, to protect users from excessively large docValues, only the
> first 1024 of each field value would be used – but this could be overridden
> with configuration.
> ----
> Consider the following sample configuration:
> {code:java}
> <field name="title" type="text_sortable" docValues="true"
> indexed="true" docValues="true" stored="true" multiValued="false"/>
> <fieldType name="text_sortable" class="solr.SortableTextField">
> <analyzer type="index">
> ...
> </analyzer>
> <analyzer type="query">
> ...
> </analyzer>
> </fieldType>
> {code}
> Given a document with a title of "Solr In Action"
> Users could:
> * Search for individual (indexed) terms in the "title" field:
> {{q=title:solr}}
> * Sort documents by title ( {{sort=title asc}} ) such that this document's
> sort value would be "Solr In Action"
> If another document had a "title" value that was longer then 1024 chars, then
> the docValues would be built using only the first 1024 characters of the
> value (unless the user modified the configuration)
> This would be functionally equivalent to the following existing configuration
> - including the on disk index segments - except that the on disk DocValues
> would refer directly to the "title" field, reducing the total number of
> "field infos" in the index (which has a small impact on segment housekeeping
> and merge times) and end users would not need to sort on an alternate
> "title_string" field name - the original "title" field name would always be
> used directly.
> {code:java}
> <field name="title" type="text"
> indexed="true" docValues="true" stored="true" multiValued="false"/>
> <field name="title_string" type="string"
> indexed="false" docValues="true" stored="false" multiValued="false"/>
> <copyField source="title" dest="title_string" maxCharsForDocValues="1024" />
> {code}
