Schema configuration field defaults

[Dionte Smith <di...@gm.com>]

Hi,

I have two questions about the field default values for multivalued and indexed.


  1.  Is it possible to make new fields have the indexed attribute set to false by default for a schema? I understand this wouldn't normally be the case, but we have a use case where it would be preferable as many fields may be dynamically added via JSON.
  2.  Is it possible to do the same for the multivalued attribute? If so, what would happen if a field was dynamically added via JSON and it was contained an array? Would Solr be able to determine that the field should instead be created with the multivalued attribute set to true?

Kind Regards,

Sure. In both cases define a fieldType with those attributes set however you want. Any field that is defined with that fieldType will have the defaults you specify unless overridden on the field definition itself.

Best,
Erick
