So, the patch solves my problem :-), and I'm not sure what the other use cases
really are, so i'll be looking at input from others ([[email protected]],
[~otis]?) in order to understand the requirements. My Solr skills do not extend
to functions, augmenters, etc -- at least not yet!
Also, to aid the discussion, this is what we got today:
* SolrQuery stores the sort field as a comma-separated string of "field
direction"
* SolrQuery.getSortField() returns the full string, e.g. "price asc, date desc,
qty desc"
* SolrQuery.getSortFields() yields [ "price asc", " date desc", " qty desc" ],
including extraneous whitespace
Can you provide a couple of examples of how that would/should work with the
api, extending my examples below. Then, I'll see if I feel qualified, and if
you guys promise to guide with qa, I'll do my best.
{code}
q.addSortField("price", SolrQuery.ORDER.asc);
q.addSortField("date", SolrQuery.ORDER.desc);
q.addSortField("qty", SolrQuery.ORDER.desc);
q.removeSortField("date", SolrQuery.ORDER.desc);
{code}

> solrj should support better way of finding active sorts

> Key: SOLR-3926
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SOLR-3926
> Project: Solr
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: clients - java
> Affects Versions: 4.0
> Reporter: Eirik Lygre
> Priority: Minor
> Fix For: 4.1
>
> Attachments: SOLR-3926.patch
>
>
> The Solrj api uses ortogonal concepts for setting/removing and getting sort
> information. Setting/removing uses a combination of (name,order), while
> getters return a String "name order":
> {code}
> public SolrQuery setSortField(String field, ORDER order);
> public SolrQuery addSortField(String field, ORDER order);
> public SolrQuery removeSortField(String field, ORDER order);
> public String[] getSortFields();
> public String getSortField();
> {code}
> If you want to use the current sort information to present a list of active
> sorts, with the possibility to remove then, you need to manually parse the
> string(s) returned from getSortFields, to recreate the information required
> by removeSortField(). Not difficult, but not convenient either :-)
> Therefore this suggestion: Add a new method {{public Map<String,ORDER>
> getSortFieldMap();}} which returns an ordered map of active sort fields. This
> will make introspection of the current sort setup much easier.
> {code}
> public Map<String, ORDER> getSortFieldMap() {
> String[] actualSortFields = getSortFields();
> if (actualSortFields == null || actualSortFields.length == 0)
> return Collections.emptyMap();
> Map<String, ORDER> sortFieldMap = new LinkedHashMap<String, ORDER>();
> for (String sortField : actualSortFields) {
> String[] fieldSpec = sortField.trim().split(" ");
> sortFieldMap.put(fieldSpec[0], ORDER.valueOf(fieldSpec[1]));
> }
> return Collections.unmodifiableMap(sortFieldMap);
> }
> {code}
> For what it's worth, this is possible client code:
> {code}
> System.out.println("Active sorts");
> Map<String, ORDER> fieldMap = getSortFieldMap(query);
> for (String field : fieldMap.keySet()) {
> System.out.println("- " + field + "; dir=" + fieldMap.get(field));
> }
> {code}
