Ryan McKinley commented on SOLR-236: ------------------------------------ This looks good. Someone with better lucene chops should look at the IndexSearcher getDocListAndSet part... A few comments/questions about the interface: If you apply all the example docs and hit: http://localhost:8983/solr/select/?q=*:*&collapse=true you get 500. We should use: params.required().get( "collapse.field" ) to have a nicer error: With: http://localhost:8983/solr/select/?q=*:*&collapse=true&collapse.field=manu&collapse.max=1 the collapse info at the bottom says: <lst name="collapse_counts"> <int name="has_more_results">3</int> <int name="has_more_results">5</int> <int name="has_more_results">9</int> </lst> what does that mean? How would you use it? How does it relate to the <result docs? > Field collapsing > ---------------- > > Key: SOLR-236 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SOLR-236 > Project: Solr > Issue Type: New Feature > Components: search > Affects Versions: 1.2 > Reporter: Emmanuel Keller > Attachments: collapse_field.patch, collapse_field.patch > > > This patch include a new feature called "Field collapsing". > "Used in order to collapse a group of results with similar value for a given > field to a single entry in the result set.
