MoreLikeThis handler and field collapsing.
Hi,
I have a 1.3 Solr with the field collapsing patch (SOLR-236 - http://
issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SOLR-236).
Collapsing works great, but only using the dismax and standard query
handler - I haven't managed to get it to work using the MoreLikeThis
handler though - I am going for a simplistic approach where I just
run a query such as:
/mlt?start=0&rows=3&collapse.field=collapsefield&collapse.type=normal
Looking at the SOLR-236 patch it seems the field collapsing has only
been patched into the StandardRequestHandler and the
DisMaxRequestHandler, which would explain why this fails to work
completely, but perhaps someone has found another way ?
Regards.

Re: MoreLikeThis handler and field collapsing.
Posted by Pieter Berkel <pi...@gmail.com>.
What exactly are you trying to achieve by using the MoreLikeThis handler? I
created a patch that adds MoreLikeThis functionality (available in the
Standard request handler) to the Dismax handler in
http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SOLR-295
<https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SOLR-295> which may be of interest
(although unfortunately not quite the same as what you requested).
As far as I'm aware, there is no real need for MoreLikeThis to be a
standalone request handler in its own right (and to be honest the current
implemetation feels a bit clumsy), rather it should be incorporated as a
"plugin" or search component in the Standard and Dismax handlers (like the
way Facets, Highlighting and Collapsing currently are implemented), which is
what Ryan is trying to achieve with SOLR-281. I'm hoping the "search
component" idea will gain traction and support soon as I'd really like so
see the Dismax request handler support MoreLikeThis functionality soon! (but
I digress...)
cheers,
Piete

I will take a stab at patching the MoreLikeThis handler - but given
that I have never touched a single line of Solr code this might fail
miserably :)
Maybe there is a kind soul which could provide a new patch for
SOLR-236 which includes field collapse with MLT ?

I have not tried, but field collapsing should be able to work with the
MoreLikeThis handler -- but it is not part of the patch.
Given that we keep trying to add more widgets to the search chain, there
has been talk of "search component" based handler that can easily share
this sort of functionality.
check:
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SOLR-281
http://www.nabble.com/search-components-%28plugins%29-tf3898040.html#a11050274
SOLR-281 is now just a quick/dirty brainstorm, but I think it is the
likely direction for how field collapsing will be integrated.
In short, if you need something to work quickly: apply the same pattern
from DisMax and Standard to the MoreLikeThis handler. If you have more
time (and interest) it would be great to add these features to SOLR-281.
