I am using external field for price field since it changes every 10 minutes. I am able to display the price / use range queries to display the documents based on a price range.
I am trying to see if its possible to generate facets using external field. I understand that faceting requires indexing and the facets are calculated during indexing and since external fields fields are not actually indexed, its not possible to get facets out of the box. I am thinking of writing multiple range queries and get the counts and update the facets (just for price). I want to know if there is any other solution for this implementation. -- View this message in context: http://lucene.472066.n3.nabble.com/How-to-Facet-external-fields-tp4168653.html Sent from the Solr - User mailing list archive at Nabble.com.
