I'm not sure I understand... Ryan, how can I have access to your contribution ? (is it a contribution to Luke or to the solr rest interface ?) Is this implemented yet, and if so, how can I use it ? Thanks.
Solr has a pluggable request handling framework that lets you easily write custom logic and takes care of the xml/json/etc writing for you. Check: http://wiki.apache.org/solr/SolrPlugins#head-7c0d03515c496017f6c0116ebb096e34a872cb61 http://wiki.apache.org/solr/SolrRequestHandler Since the exact term browsing mechanism you asked for is not supported, I suggested writing your own and looking to the IndexInfoRequestHandler as a simple starting place. After more thought (and Yonik pointing it out), you are probably best off if you can use faced browsing to do what you need. http://wiki.apache.org/solr/SolrFacetingOverview The 'luke' comments are unrelated to your direct question, but you can check that out here: http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SOLR-162 ryan
