Hello devs,
This mail following a discussion we've had with Eduard on IRC concerning
the indexing of object property values. On the current Solr
implementation as well as on our lucene plugin, all property values are
stored as text/strings. I've expressed the idea that we probably want to
store each object's property in a field that matches the XClass property
field type. For example, store integers in integer field types, double
as doubles, etc.
My personnal use case is to store geo objects (for example long/lat
coordinates), but I think this has value for other types, numbers for
example (it means you can use those numbers as such when querying for
instance).
Now this will increase the complexity of querying since you would have
for example property_text, property_integer, property_double, etc. vs.
just propertvalue. Again, I think this complexity should be hidden by
the "expending API" Paul mentionned in the mail regarding document
translations.
WDYT ?
Jerome
