I am trying to figure out how to give weights to my suggestions but I can
find no documentation on how to do this correctly.
Here is my configuration:
solrconfig.xml
<searchComponent name="suggest" class="solr.SuggestComponent">
<lst name="suggester">
<str name="name">mySuggester</str>
<str name="dictionaryImpl">DocumentDictionaryFactory</str>
<str name="lookupImpl">FuzzyLookupFactory</str>
<str name="field">suggest</str>
<str name="weightField">popularity</str>
<str name="suggestAnalyzerFieldType">textSuggest</str>
<str name="buildOnStartup">false</str>
<str name="exactMatchFirst">true</str>
</lst>
</searchComponent>
The popularity field and weightField are defined in my schema
<field name="popularity" type="float" indexed="true" stored="true"
default="0"/>
<field name="weightField" type="float" indexed="true" stored="true"/>
In my suggest field I copy several other fields to be used for suggestions:
<field name="suggest" type="textSuggest" indexed="false" stored="true"
multiValued="true"/>
<copyField source="productid" dest="suggest"/>
<copyField source="manufacturer" dest="suggest"/>
<copyField source="application" dest="suggest"/>
<copyField source="type" dest="suggest"/>
<copyField source="handletype" dest="suggest"/>
<copyField source="uniqueFinish" dest="suggest"/>
However whenever I perform a search I get 0 for the weights even though
popularity values exist for the documents.
/solr/productindex/select?suggest=true&suggest.q=koh&suggest.build=true
Results:
<result name="response" numFound="0" start="0"/>
<lst name="suggest">
<lst name="mySuggester">
<lst name="koh">
<int name="numFound">1</int>
<arr name="suggestions">
<lst>
<str name="term">kohler</str>
<long name="weight">0</long>
<str name="payload"/>
</lst>
</arr>
</lst>
</lst>
</lst>
</response>
Can someone please explain to me how to use weightField and payload so that
I can give some ranking to my suggested terms.
