JIRA SOLR-1437 created "DIH: Enhance XPathRecordReader to deal with //tagname and other improvements."
>Fergus, > >Implementing wildcard (//tagname) is definitely possible. I would love >to see it working. But if you wish to take a dig at it I shall do >whatever I can to help. > >>What is the use case that makes flow though so useful? >We do not know to which forEach xpath a given field is associated with. >Currently you can clean up the fields using a transformer. There is an >implicit field '$forEach' which tells you about the xpath tag for each >record that is emitted. > >>The recently added comments in XPathRecordReader are a great help and I >>was planning to add more. Might this be an issue? >I would love to have it. Give a patch and I shall commit it. >XPathRecordReader is a blackbox and AFAIK I am the only one who knows >it. I would love to have more eyes on that. > >>I would like to open a JIRA for improving XPathRecordReader. >Please go ahead. You can paste the contents of this mail in the list . >There may be others with similar ideas > >Noble. -- =============================================================== Fergus McMenemie Email:fer...@twig.me.uk Techmore Ltd Phone:(UK) 07721 376021 Unix/Mac/Intranets Analyst Programmer ===============================================================
