Chris Harris updated SOLR-284:
------------------------------
Attachment: un-hardcode-id.diff
The patch, as currently stands, treats a field called "id" as a special case.
First, it is a required field. Second, unlike any other field, you don't need
to declare it in the fieldnames parameter. Finally, since the
fieldSolrParams.getInt(), that field is required to be an int.
This special-case treatment seems a little too particular to me; not everyone
wants to have a field called "id", and not everyone who does wants that field
to be an int. So what I propose is to eliminate the special treatment of "id".
See un-hardcode-id.diff for what this might mean in particular. (That file is
not complete; to correctly make this change, I'd have to update the test cases.)
This is a breaking change, because if you *are* using an id field, you'll now
have to specifically indicate that fact in the fieldnames parameter. Thus,
instead of
http://localhost:8983/solr/update/rich?stream.file=myfile.doc&stream.type=doc&id=100&stream.fieldname=text&fieldnames=subject,author&subject=mysubject&author=eric
you'll have to put
http://localhost:8983/solr/update/rich?stream.file=myfile.doc&stream.type=doc&id=100&stream.fieldname=text&fieldnames=id,subject,author&subject=mysubject&author=eric
I think asking users of this patch to make this slight change in their client
code is not an unreasonable burden, but I'm curious what Eric and others have
to say.
