[jira] [Comment Edited] (SOLR-4905) Cross core joins don't work for SolrCloud collections and/or aliases

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SOLR-4905?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=14049570#comment-14049570 ]

-------------------------------------------------------

I have noticed this issue have been lying around for a year, seems like nobody is bother to use JOIN in solrcloud, so I decide to tackle this myself.

A small patch has been uploaded here to allow fromIndex to specify a collection under cloud environment. Currently, it works if the fromIndex collection is a single shard having at least 1 replica on each node. I am planning to support multi-shard collection but not really sure how to do it given I am not that familiar with the internal mechanics of solr.

Even if we support multishard, given the current implementation of JoinQParser, I think we can only support it when a collection with at least 1 replica of all shards physically residing on every node. We need all local IndexSearcher. If we need full solrcloud join support, I think we need to revamp JoinQParser or make something on a higher level to gather terms collection from remote shards on StandardRequestHandler.

By the way, I noticed we haven't use JoinUtil in LUCENE, is there a reason to not use it, their implementation seems to be more cleaner than the one in SOLR right now, I have no idea what it's doing in JoinQParser

> Using a non-SolrCloud setup, it is possible to perform cross core joins (http://wiki.apache.org/solr/Join). When testing with SolrCloud, however, neither the collection name, alias name (we have created aliases to SolrCloud collections), or the automatically generated core name (i.e. <collection>_shard1_replica1) work as the fromIndex parameter for a cross-core join.
