----------------------------------

Hi Shalin, 

I'm indexing forums with Solr and have tables with a structure similar to this:

{code}
posts
------
forumid int
messageid int
deleted boolean
message text

forums
------
forumid int
name text
deleted boolean

{code}

The simplified data query I'm running goes like this:

{code}
SELECT 
   p.forumid,
   p.messageid,
   IF (p.deleted OR f.deleted,true,false) as deleted,
   p.message
  
FROM 
   posts p, forums f

WHERE
   f.forumid = p.forumid
{code}

The query checks to see if the post or the forum is deleted, and marks it in 
the index as deleted in either case (which is why I'm doing the join).  The 
problem I'm running into is that the importer is running the WHERE clause like 
this:

{code}
WHERE 
   f.forumid = p.forumid and forumid=123 and messageid=123456789
{code}

In this case, the _forumid=123_ part is ambiguous (forumid being in the posts 
and the forums table) so this causes a SQL error.  So I added an additional 
attribute to the entity defintion (pkTable) which prepends the _forumid=123_ 
with the pkTable value so it generates _pkTable.forumid=123_.

Not sure if this is the best way to do it but it fixed the problem :)

> We need a RequestHandler Which can import data from a DB or other dataSources 
> into the Solr index .Think of it as an advanced form of SqlUpload Plugin 
> (SOLR-103).
> The way it works is as follows.
>     * Provide a configuration file (xml) to the Handler which takes in the 
> necessary SQL queries and mappings to a solr schema
>           - It also takes in a properties file for the data source 
> configuraution
>     * Given the configuration it can also generate the solr schema.xml
>     * It is registered as a RequestHandler which can take two commands 
> do-full-import, do-delta-import
>           -  do-full-import - dumps all the data from the Database into the 
> index (based on the SQL query in configuration)
>           - do-delta-import - dumps all the data that has changed since last 
> import. (We assume a modified-timestamp column in tables)
>     * It provides a admin page
>           - where we can schedule it to be run automatically at regular 
> intervals
>           - It shows the status of the Handler (idle, full-import, 
> delta-import)
