: reference some large in-memory lookup tables. After the search components : get done processing the orignal query, the query may contain SpanNearQueries : and DisjunctionMaxQueries. I'd like to send that query to the shards, not : the original query. : : I've come up with the following idea for doing this. Would people please : comment on this idea or suggest a better alternative? : : * Subclass QueryComponent to base64 encode the serialized form of the query : and send that in place of the original query. : : * set the queryParser on the shard servers to a custom class that unencodes : and deserializes the encoded query and returns it.
those are essentially the same idea .... a query string is just a simple form of QUery serialization. a COmponent on your master could modify the query string to be anything you want (base64 encoded native serialization, xml based serialization, json, etc...) as long as the QParser on the slave machines know how to make sense of it. -Hoss
