Hi, I am trying to do a facet search and sort the facet values too.
First I tried with 'solr.TextField' as field type. But this does not return sorted facet values. After referring to FAQ(http://wiki.apache.org/solr/FAQ#Why_Isn.27t_Sorting_Working_on_my_Text_Fields.3F), I changed it to 'solr.StrField', it did work. But sorting was not always correct, e.g. 'ALPHA' was sorted above 'Abacus'. Then I followed the sample example schema.xml, created a copyField of type '' <fieldType name="alphaOnlySort" class="solr.TextField" sortMissingLast="true" omitNorms="true"> <analyzer> <tokenizer class="solr.KeywordTokenizerFactory"/> <filter class="solr.LowerCaseFilterFactory"/> <filter class="solr.TrimFilterFactory"/> <filter class="solr.PatternReplaceFilterFactory" pattern="([^a-z])" replacement="" replace="all"/> --> </analyzer> </fieldType> But this gave another problem if the data contains any non-alpha characters(was replaced). Hence I removed the PatternReplaceFilterFactory from the above definition and it worked well. But the sorted facet values dont have their case preserved anymore. How can I get around this? Thank You.
