------------------------------------
Summary: Make DocumentDictionary and co more lenient to dirty
documents
Key: LUCENE-5329
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LUCENE-5329
Project: Lucene - Core
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: core/search
Reporter: Areek Zillur
Currently DocumentDictionary errors out whenever any document does not have
value for any relevant stored fields. It would be nice to make it lenient and
instead ignore the invalid documents.
Another "issue" with the DocumentDictionary is that it only allows string
fields as suggestions and binary fields as payloads. When exposing these
dictionaries to solr (via https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SOLR-5378), it
is inconvenient for the user to ensure that a suggestion field is a string
field and a payload field is a binary field. It would be nice to have the
dictionary "just work" whenever a string/binary field is passed to
suggestion/payload field. The patch provides one solution to this problem (by
accepting string or binary values), though it would be great if there are any
other solution to this, without making the DocumentDictionary "too flexible"
