Solrj supporting term vector component ?

[Deepu <kp...@gmail.com>]

Dear Community Members,

I am planning to use Term vector component for one of the use cases, as per
below solr documentation link solrj not supporting Term Vector Component,
do you have any other suggestions to use TVC in java application?

https://lucene.apache.org/solr/guide/8_4/the-term-vector-component.html#solrj-and-the-term-vector-component


Thanks,
Deepu

To expand on Shawn’s comment. There are a lot of built-in helper methods in SolrJ, but
they all amount to setting a value in the underlying map of params, which you can
do yourself for any parameter you could specify on a URL or cURL command.

For instance, SolrQuery.setStart(start) is just:

this.set(CommonParams.START, start);

and this.set just puts CommonParams.START, start into the underlying parameter map.

I’m simplifying some here since the helper methods do some safety checking and
the like, but the take-away is “anything you can set on a URL or specify
in a cURL command can be specified in SolrJ by setting the parameter explicitly”.

Best,
Erick

SolrJ will support just about any query you might care to send, you just 
have to give it all the required parameters when building the request. 
All the results will be available, though you'll almost certainly have 
to provide code yourself that rips apart the NamedList into usable info.

What is being said in the documentation is that there are not any 
special objects or methods for doing term vector queries.  It's not 
saying that it can't be done.

Thanks,
Shawn
