hey thanks for this info. So I've got it almost to where I want my search
to be :) I've changed my schema and solrconfig in the following ways:
in my schema I have 5 fields 2 of which are first-name and last-name. I
have the text field and I copy last-name and first-name into it so that by
default I only search across those 2 fields. What I did also is changed my
dismax request handler to the following:
<requestHandler name="dismax" class="solr.DisMaxRequestHandler" >
<lst name="defaults">
<str name="echoParams">explicit</str>
<float name="tie">0.01</float>
<str name="qf">
last-name^2.0 first-name^1.0
</str>
<str name="pf">
last-name^2.0 first-name^1.0
</str>
<str name="fl">
*,score
</str>
</lst>
</requestHandler>
So that I boost last-name.
and to my query I add 3 sort params "score desc,last-name asc,first-name
asc". This gives me nice results. The only thing that is missing right now
is that wildcards do not work. So if my q is john barber I get back the
correct doc. When I change q to john bar* I don't get anything. My text
field is defined as the default schema has it:
<fieldtype name="text" class="solr.TextField" positionIncrementGap="100">
<analyzer type="index">
<tokenizer class="solr.WhitespaceTokenizerFactory"/>
<filter class="solr.StopFilterFactory" ignoreCase="true" words="
stopwords.txt"/>
<filter class="solr.WordDelimiterFilterFactory"
generateWordParts="1" generateNumberParts="1" catenateWords="1"
catenateNumbers="1" catenateAll="0"/>
<filter class="solr.LowerCaseFilterFactory"/>
<filter class="solr.EnglishPorterFilterFactory" protected="
protwords.txt"/>
<filter class="solr.RemoveDuplicatesTokenFilterFactory"/>
</analyzer>
<analyzer type="query">
<tokenizer class="solr.WhitespaceTokenizerFactory"/>
<filter class="solr.SynonymFilterFactory" synonyms="synonyms.txt"
ignoreCase="true" expand="true"/>
<filter class="solr.StopFilterFactory" ignoreCase="true" words="
stopwords.txt"/>
<filter class="solr.WordDelimiterFilterFactory"
generateWordParts="1" generateNumberParts="1" catenateWords="0"
catenateNumbers="0" catenateAll="0"/>
<filter class="solr.LowerCaseFilterFactory"/>
<filter class="solr.EnglishPorterFilterFactory" protected="
protwords.txt"/>
<filter class="solr.RemoveDuplicatesTokenFilterFactory"/>
</analyzer>
</fieldtype>
I would like to be able to support such wildcards
thanks a lot
