             Summary: Add configuration option to strip type postfix from dynamic field name on document indexing
                 Key: SOLR-9150
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SOLR-9150
             Project: Solr
          Issue Type: New Feature
          Components: Server
    Affects Versions: 6.0
            Reporter: Peter Horvath


In some cases, incorporating field type indication to the name of a dynamic field is not desirable. 

It would be great if there was a configuration option (global, instance level or collection-level), which instructed Solr to create dynamic fields with the type postfix stripped. 

For example, suppose the schema contained a dynamic field with a name of "*_i". If the user attempts to index a document with a "cost_i" field, but no explicit "cost_i" field is defined in the schema, then a "cost" field (without "_i" postfix) would be created with the field type and analysis defined for "*_i". As a result queries could be executed against the dynamic field being referred to without the type indicator postfix: "cost:10"

To retain backward compatibility, this feature should have to be enabled explicitly.
