             Summary: Deprecate MoreLikeTHisHandler
                 Key: SOLR-13172
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SOLR-13172
             Project: Solr
          Issue Type: Improvement
      Security Level: Public (Default Security Level. Issues are Public)
          Components: MoreLikeThis
            Reporter: Alessandro Benedetti


Following the discussions with [~dsmi...@mac.com]
Currently the Lucene More Like This functionality is offered in Apache Solr 
through :
 * More Like This Handler
 * More Like This Component
 * More Like This Query Parser

The query parser is the most flexible approach and it is well supported, it is 
a good candidate to become the main entry point if a user wnat the MLT 
functionality.

The More Like This component is quite coupled with the others but it has a 
sense and offers slightly different features from the query parser ( *Using 
MoreLikeThis as a search component returns similar documents for each document 
in the response set.*)

So the proposal here is to deprecate and remove the More Like This Handler, to 
ease the maintenance  of the functionality and to simplify the way new users 
approach it.
