> I'd like to explore simplifications to the facet module's APIs: I
> think the current APIs are complex, and the addition of a new feature
> (sparse faceting, LUCENE-5333) threatens to add even more classes
> (e.g., FacetRequestBuilder). I think we can do better.
> So, I've been prototyping some drastic changes; this is very
> early/exploratory and I'm not sure where it'll wind up but I think the
> new approach shows promise.
> The big changes are:
> * Instead of *FacetRequest/Params/Result, you directly instantiate
> the classes that do facet counting (currently TaxonomyFacetCounts,
> RangeFacetCounts or SortedSetDVFacetCounts), passing in the
> SimpleFacetsCollector, and then you interact with those classes to
> pull labels + values (topN under a path, sparse, specific labels).
> * At index time, no more FacetIndexingParams/CategoryListParams;
> instead, you make a new SimpleFacetFields and pass it the field it
> should store facets + drill downs under. If you want more than
> one CLI you create more than one instance of SimpleFacetFields.
> * I added a simple schema, where you state which dimensions are
> hierarchical or multi-valued. From this we decide how to index
> the ordinals (no more OrdinalPolicy).
> Sparse faceting is just another method (getAllDims), on both taxonomy
> & ssdv facet classes.
> I haven't created a common base class / interface for all of the
> search-time facet classes, but I think this may be possible/clean, and
> perhaps useful for drill sideways.
> All the new classes are under oal.facet.simple.*.
> Lots of things that don't work yet: drill sideways, complements,
> associations, sampling, partitions, etc. This is just a start ...
