CharFilter - normalize characters before tokenizer
--------------------------------------------------

                 Key: SOLR-822
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SOLR-822
             Project: Solr
          Issue Type: New Feature
          Components: Analysis
            Reporter: Koji Sekiguchi
            Priority: Minor


A new plugin which can be placed in front of <tokenizer/>.

{code:xml}
<fieldType name="textCharNorm" class="solr.TextField" 
positionIncrementGap="100" >
  <analyzer>
    <charFilter class="solr.MappingCharFilterFactory" mapping="mapping_ja.txt" 
/>
    <tokenizer class="solr.MappingCJKTokenizerFactory"/>
    <filter class="solr.StopFilterFactory" ignoreCase="true" 
words="stopwords.txt"/>
    <filter class="solr.LowerCaseFilterFactory"/>
  </analyzer>
</fieldType>
{code}

<charFilter/> can be multiple (chained). I'll post a JPEG file to show 
character normalization sample soon.

MOTIVATION:
In Japan, there are two types of tokenizers -- N-gram (CJKTokenizer) and 
Morphological Analyzer.
When we use morphological analyzer, because the analyzer uses Japanese 
dictionary to detect terms,
we need to normalize characters before tokenization.

I'll post a patch soon, too.
