Eirik Lygre updated SOLR-3926:
------------------------------
Attachment: SOLR-3926.patch
This patch implements the API as discussed above. The patch contains javadoc
and unit tests, and was built against
http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/lucene/dev/branches/branch_4x.
This patch solves the original requirements that led to this issue
(introspection of active sorts), and hopefully also the requirements of the
Solr project (as represented by [~yo...@apache.org] and [~hossman]).
> solrj should support better way of finding active sorts

> 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}
