I am trying to index data where I'm concerned that storing the contents of a specific field will be a bit of a hog so we are planning to retrieve this information as needed for highlighting from an external source. I am looking to extend the default solr highlighting capability to work with information pulled from this external source and it looks like this is possible by extending DefaultSolrHighlighter (line 418 to pull a particular field from external source) for standard highlighting and BaseFragmentsBuilder (line 99) for FastVectorHighlighter. I could just hard code this to say if the field name is a specific value look into the external source, is this the best way to accomplish this? Are there any other extension points to do what I'm suggesting?
There is a couple of long lived issues in jira for this (I'd like to try to search them, but I couldn't access jira now). For FVH, it is needed to be modified at Lucene level to use external data. koji -- http://www.rondhuit.com/en/
