Michael McCandless commented on LUCENE-2309: -------------------------------------------- {quote} bq. Or remove them entirely (but, then, core tests will need to use contrib analyzers for their testing)... For that I proposed to have a default TestAttributeSourceImpl, which does whitespace tokenization or something. If other 'core' tests need something else, we can write specific AttributeSources for them. I hope we can avoid introducing any dependency of core on contrib. {quote} Only tests would rely on the analyzers module. I think that's OK? core itself would have no dependence. > Fully decouple IndexWriter from analyzers > ----------------------------------------- > > Key: LUCENE-2309 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LUCENE-2309 > Project: Lucene - Java > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: Index > Reporter: Michael McCandless > > IndexWriter only needs an AttributeSource to do indexing. > Yet, today, it interacts with Field instances, holds a private > analyzers, invokes analyzer.reusableTokenStream, has to deal with a > wide variety (it's not analyzed; it is analyzed but it's a Reader, > String; it's pre-analyzed). > I'd like to have IW only interact with attr sources that already > arrived with the fields. This would be a powerful decoupling -- it > means others are free to make their own attr sources. > They need not even use any of Lucene's analysis impls; eg they can > integrate to other things like [OpenPipeline|http://www.openpipeline.org]. > Or make something completely custom. > LUCENE-2302 is already a big step towards this: it makes IW agnostic > about which attr is "the term", and only requires that it provide a > BytesRef (for flex). > Then I think LUCENE-2308 would get us most of the remaining way -- ie, if the > FieldType knows the analyzer to use, then we could simply create a > getAttrSource() method (say) on it and move all the logic IW has today > onto there. (We'd still need existing IW code for back-compat). -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - You can reply to this email to add a comment to the issue online. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: java-dev-unsubscr...@lucene.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: java-dev-h...@lucene.apache.org
