Hello Team,
I am facing a problem with sorting on a field with type as mentioned below
<fieldType name="*string_ci*" class="solr.SortableTextField"
positionIncrementGap="100">
<analyzer>
<tokenizer class="solr.KeywordTokenizerFactory"/>
<filter class="solr.LowerCaseFilterFactory"/>
</analyzer>
</fieldType>
<field name="fieldName" type="*string_ci*" indexed="true" stored="true"
required="false" multiValued="false">
The field may contain numerical as well as alphabetical values. My
Solr version is 7.5.0.
If I sort by "fieldName desc", this field sorts lowercase values first,
followed by Uppercase and then the digits.
I want to be able to sort values irrespective of the case and also I don't
want to change the class of the field (SortableTextField) as this type will
also be used to perform a case-insensitive search on this very field which
is working fine.
I supposed, LowerCaseFilterFactory was enough for this scenario. Is there
anything I am missing here?
Best,
Ritesh Kumar
