Will Result Grouping return documents that don't contain the specified "group.field"?
I want to group my results by a field named "group_id".
However, some of my documents don't contain the field "group_id". But I still want these documents to be returned as part of the results as long as they match the main query "q".
Do I need to do anything to tell Solr that I want those documents?
Thanks.

Solr will. Documents without a value for that field should be grouped
under the "null" value.

Is there anyway to configure Solr such that:
1) Documents that contain the specified "group.field" will be returned and grouped by "group.field",
AND
2) Documents that don't contain the specified "group.field" will just be returned as "normal" search results without any grouping
Any way to achieve that?
Thanks.

Correct. Given the fact that Solr only requires fields in documents where
required="true", how could it? The behavior of "just put everything in a
bucket that doesn't have field X" would produce some "interesting"
results....

So by default Solr will not return documents that don't contain the specified group.field?

What if you put in a default value for the group_id field in the solr schema - would that work for you? e.g. something like 'unknown' Then you'll get all those with no original group_id value still grouped together, and you can figure out at display time what you want to do with them.
