Reconstruct a Document (stored fields, indexed fields, payloads)
----------------------------------------------------------------

                 Key: SOLR-1837
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SOLR-1837
             Project: Solr
          Issue Type: New Feature
          Components: Schema and Analysis, web gui
    Affects Versions: 1.5
         Environment: All
            Reporter: Trey Grainger
            Priority: Minor
             Fix For: 1.5


One Solr feature I've been sorely in need of is the ability to inspect an index 
for any particular document.  While the analysis page is good when you have 
specific content and a specific field/type your want to test the analysis 
process for, once a document is indexed it is not currently possible to easily 
see what is actually sitting in the index.

One can use the Lucene Index Browser (Luke), but this has several limitations 
(gui only, doesn't understand solr schema, doesn't display many non-text fields 
in human readable format, doesn't show payloads, some bugs lead to missing 
terms, exposes features dangerous to use in a production Solr environment, slow 
or difficult to check from a remote location, etc.).  The document 
reconstruction feature of Luke provides the base for what can become a much 
more powerful tool when coupled with Solr's understanding of a schema, however.
