I'm still going around in a circle on this. I'm not sure why it's not
sinking in...
If I could just create the desired URL, I can probably work backwards
and construct the correct ruby call.
Here is the URL that I'm currently creating (I've added newlines here
for readability):
http://localhost:8983/solr/resources/select?hl.fragsize=600
&hl=true
&facet.field=genre
&facet.field=archive
&facet.limit=-1
&qt=standard
&start=0
&fq=archive%3A%22blake%22
&hl.fl=text
&fl=uri%2Carchive%2Cdate_label%2Cgenre
&facet=true
&q=%28history%29
&rows=60
&facet.missing=true
&facet.mincount=1
What this search returns from my index is 53 hits. The first 43 contain
the genre field value "Citation" and the last 10 do not (they contain
other values in that field.)
Note: the genre field is multivalued, if that matters.
I'd like the search to put all of the objects that contain genre
"Citation" below the 10 objects that do not contain that genre.
I've read the various pages on boosting, but since I'm not actively
searching on the field that I want to put a boost value on, I'm not sure
how to go about this.
Thanks for any hints.

Hi,
I'm using solr-ruby-0.0.8 and solr 1.4.
My data contains a faceted field called "genre". We would like one
particular genre, (the one named "Citation") to show up last in the
results.
I'm having trouble figuring out how to add the boost parameter to the
solr-ruby call. Here is my code:
req = Solr::Request::Standard.new(:start => start,
:rows => max,
:sort => sort_param,
:query => query,
:filter_queries => filter_queries,
:field_list => @field_list,
:facets => {:fields => @facet_fields,
:mincount => 1,
:missing => true,
:limit => -1},
:highlighting => {:field_list => ['text'],
:fragment_size => 600},
:shards => @cores)
response = @solr.send(req)
Do I just format it inside my query, like this:
query = query + "AND genre:Citation^.01"
or in filter_query, like this:
filter_queries.push("genre:Citation^.01")
or is there a hash parameter that I set?
(Note that the user can select Citation explicitly. I'll probably
special case that.)
I've tried variations of the above, but I've had no luck so far.
Thanks,
Paul
