             Summary: Highlighting debugger page in UI
                 Key: SOLR-3547
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SOLR-3547
             Project: Solr
          Issue Type: New Feature
          Components: highlighter, Response Writers, Schema and Analysis, web 
gui
            Reporter: Lance Norskog
            Priority: Minor


Highlighting is complex. There are three highlighters, they have some common 
and unique options, and highlighting has some weird interplay with the schema. 
Getting highlighting right is maybe the most frustrating exercise in Solr app 
development.

It would be great to have a "highlighting tester", where you could pick a 
fieldType, input some text as a document and highlight a query. The purpose 
would be debugging a highlighting parameter set, and then grabbing that for 
your app. The UI would have all of the known options for the different 
highlighters, and show you the parameters. 

We don't want to actually index the document. This page would require a 
'highlighting analyzer update processor' which takes document text and runs 
against it. It would be a sibling class to the DocumentAnalysis, FieldAnalysis 
etc. handlers.
