A RequestProcessor to support updates -------------------------------------
Key: SOLR-828 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SOLR-828 Project: Solr Issue Type: Improvement Reporter: Noble Paul Fix For: 1.4 This is same as SOLR-139. A new issue is opened so that the UpdateProcessor approach is highlighted and we can easily focus on that solution. The new {{UpdateProcessor}} called ({{UpdateableIndexProcessor}}) must be inserted before {{RunUpdateProcessor}}. * The {{UpdateProcessor}} must add an update method. * the {{AddUpdateCommand}} has a new boolean field append. If append= true multivalued fields will be appended else old ones are removed and new ones are added * The schema must have a {{<uniquekeyField>}} * {{UpdateableIndexProcessor}} registers {{postCommit/postOptimize}} listeners. h1.Implementation {{UpdateableIndexProcessor}} maintains two separate Lucene indexes for doing the backup * *temp.backup.index* : This index stores (not indexed) all the fields (except uniquekey which is stored and indexed) in the document * *backup.index* : This index stores (not indexed) all the fields (except uniquekey which is stored and indexed) which are not stored in the actual schema and the fields which are targets of copyField. h1.Implementation of various methods h2.{{processAdd()}} {{UpdateableIndexProcessor}} writes the document to temp.backup.index . And calls next {{UpdateProcessor}} h2.{{processDelete()}} {{UpdateableIndexProcessor}} gets the Searcher from a core query and find the documents which matches the query and delete from *backup.index* . if it is a delete by id delete the document with that id from *temp.backup.index* . call next {{UpdateProcessor}} h2.{{processCommit()}} {{UpdateableIndexProcessor}} calls next {{UpdateProcessor}} h2.on {{postCommit/postOmptize}} {{UpdateableIndexProcessor}} commits the *temp.backup.index* . Gets all the documents from the *temp.backup.index* one by one . if the document is present in the main index it is copied to *backup.index* .Finally it commits the *backup.index*. *temp.backup.index* is detryed after that h2.{{processUpdate()}} {{UpdateableIndexProcessor}} commits the *temp.backup.index* . Check the document first in *temp.backup.index* . If it is present read the document . if it is not present , check in *backup.index* .If it is present there , get the searcher from the main index and read all the missing fields from there, and the backup document is prepared The single valued fields are used from the incoming document (if present) others are fillled from backup doc . If append=true all the multivalues values from backup document are added to the incoming document else the values from backup document is not used if they are present in incoming document also. h2. new {{BackupIndexRequestHandler}} registered automatically at {{/backup}} This exposes the data present in the backp indexes. The user must be able to get any document by id by invoking {{/backup?id=<value>}} (multiple id values can be sent eg:id=1&id=2&id=4). This helps the user to query the backup index and construct the new doc if he wishes to do so. The {{BackupIndexRequestHandler}} does a commit on *temp.backup.index* and searches the *temp.backup.index* first for the id and if the document is absent then it checks in the *backup.index* and returns the document. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - You can reply to this email to add a comment to the issue online.
