Indexing 1 doc only ?

Is there a way to update only 1 doc in the index rather than index the
entire collection everytime there is a change ?

Given a specific field (I use as ID) of my indexed doc, how can I select it
and update its other fields ?

thanks

If I am not mistaken Lucene Q&A mentions that you  can update a document by
1. deleting it 2. adding the new one. Given that you have the ID this looks
straightforward.
