: Hi all, I am trying to use a custom search filter
: (org.apache.lucene.search.Filter) but I am unsure of where I should configure
: this.
:
: Would I have to create my own SearchHandler that would wrap this logic in? Any
: example/suggestions out there?
the easiest way to plugin a custom Filter is to wrap it in a
ConstantScoreQuery and use it as part of the filters that
SolrIndexSearcher applies (that way it will be cached independently and
can be reused)
you could do this in a SearchComponent where you decide when to
generate the Filter based on query params and then add it explicitly (see
ResponseBuilder.getFilters()).
or you could do it in a QParserPlugin, in which case clients
could optionally enable it by refering ot your QParser by name in the
local params of an fq param.
