Re: Changing Solr Query Syntax
Hi Ben, It would be nice if you can tell us your use-case so that we can be more helpful. Why does the normal query syntax not work well for you? What are you trying to accomplish? Maybe there is an easier way. On Tue, Mar 18, 2008 at 8:17 PM, Ben Sanchez [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Hi solr users, I need to change the query format for solr a little bit. How can I accomplish this. I don't wan to modify the underlying lucene query specification but just the way I query the index through the the GET http method in solr. Thanks a lot for your help.

Re: Changing Solr Query Syntax
Shalin, thanks a lot for answering that fast. Use Case: I'm migrating from a proprietary index server (XYZ) to Solr. All my applications and my customer's applications relay on the query specification of XYZ. It would be hard to modify all those apps to use the Solr Query Syntax (although, it would be ideal, Sorl query is a lot superior than that of XYZ, but impractical).

Re: Changing Solr Query Syntax
Hi Ben, If I had to do this, I would start by adding a custom javax.servlet.Filter into Solr. It should work fine since all you're doing is replacing characters in the q parameter for requests coming into /select handler. It's a bit hackish but that's exactly what you're trying to do :) Don't know if there's an alternate/easier way.

Shalin, Thanks a lot. I'll do that.

The other option would be a custom QParserPlugin. -Yonik On Tue, Mar 18, 2008 at 12:18 PM, Ben Sanchez [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Shalin, Thanks a lot. I'll do that.
