Bojan Smid commented on SOLR-236:
---------------------------------
I will try to bring this patch up to date. Currently I see two main problems:
1) The patch applies to trunk, but it doesn't compile. The problem occurs
mainly because of changes in Search Components (for instance, some method
signatures which CollapseComponent implements were changed). I have this fixed
locally (more or less), but I have to test it before posting new version of
patch.
2) It seems that CollapseComponent can't be used in chain with QueryComponent,
but instead of it. CollapseComponent basically copies QueryComponent querying
logic and adds some of it's own. I guess this isn't the right way to go.
CollapseComponent should contain only collapsing logic and should be chainable
with other components. Can anyone confirm if I'm right here? Of course, there
might be some fundamental reason why CollapseComponent had to be implemented
this way.
Does anyone else see any other issues with this component?

> 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. Site collapsing is a special case
> of this, where all results for a given web site is collapsed into one or two
> entries in the result set, typically with an associated "more documents from
> this site" link. See also Duplicate detection."
> http://www.fastsearch.com/glossary.aspx?m=48&amid=299
> The implementation add 3 new query parameters (SolrParams):
> "collapse.field" to choose the field used to group results
> "collapse.type" normal (default value) or adjacent
> "collapse.max" to select how many continuous results are allowed before
> collapsing
> TODO (in progress):
> - More documentation (on source code)
> - Test cases
> Two patches:
> - "field_collapsing.patch" for current development version
> - "field_collapsing_1.1.0.patch" for Solr-1.1.0
> P.S.: Feedback and misspelling correction are welcome ;-)
