List of indexed terms for a field
Hello,
I am trying Solr for some projects and I am very impressed by its simplicity
and clarity of use.
I am trying to make an index: Is there any way to get a list of all indexed
terms for a field (especially a string or text one)?
Thanks.

Great question. Please share your answers. I'd like to use this for a
"GOOGLE SUGGEST" Ajax scenario.

Thanks for the answer.
This is not a need for the moment, but it could be in the near future.
If it becomes so, I will see how we can implement such a thing.
As for the syntax, I would see another parameter for the request (and maybe
another URL, as the function is clearly different).
Something like:
http://localhost:8983/solr/terms/?fl=myfield&rows=10
But perhaps am I completely off-course (I am no Java developer, sorry).

Hi Paul,
There isn't currently a way to do this, except perhaps writing your
own custom request handler and using the lower level Lucene
TermEnumerator after getting your hands on the underlying IndexReader.
This feature has been on my wish-list though.
There needs to be a syntax to request info like this, and then the
implementation.
perhaps something along the lines of a function syntax
@top10=terms("myfield",10)
// request top 10 terms of "myfield", and return result under "top10"
So then the XML result from Solr would have something like this at the end:
<arr name="top10"><str>term1</str><str>term2</str><str>term3</str></arr>
@top10=termFreqs("myfield",10) // request top 10 terms and their
frequencies
Returns:
<arr name="top10"><str>term1</str><int>142</int>...
OR
<lst name="top10"><int name="term1">142</int>...

Out of the box Solr does not do this by default, but the core
architecture of Solr makes this easy to add.
I've built a Google-Suggest-like drop down do this very thing. All
of my Solr code is currently going here:
<http://svn.sourceforge.net/viewcvs.cgi/patacriticism/nines/trunk/
src/solr/org/nines/>
Particularly the FacetedSearchRequestHandler.java - where (prefix !=
null). In this particular case it's doing something a little
interesting... a RAMDirectory was built into a custom Solr cache that
indexes peoples names with tokenization and then returns just the
names (not "documents").
Note: There are domain-centric things in there at the moment, with
the grand idea to build any of these types of things into Solr when
they are proven in the field.
