I’m writing some custom filters in java and am trying to figure out if it’s
possible to get the string output from running another fieldTypes analysis
chain.
I get an IndexSchema in the FieldType.init that I can hang onto, and
thought that maybe in my toInternal or createField I might be able to do,
essentially,
index_representation =schema.getFieldType("fieldName") .getIndexAnalyzer()
.normalize("fieldName", "text_to_normalize").
But I can’t seem to get an analyzer out of this other than the
DefaultAnalyzer, nothing specific to the fieldType I’m trying to reference.
I don’t want to give the impression I know what I’m doing — I’m more of a
cut-and-paste programmer when it comes to solr and really don’t have a good
mental model of what’s going on in there — but hope someone out there can
either tell me how to do it or laugh quietly and tell me why it can’t be
done.
