Re: question about schemas (and SOLR-1131?)

[gdeconto <ge...@topproducer.com>]

I saw an interesting thread in the solr-dev forum about multiple fields per
fieldtype (https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SOLR-1131)

from the sounds of it, it might be of interest and/or use in these types of
problems;  for your example, you might be able to define a fieldtype that
houses the product data.

note that I only skimmed the thread. hopefully, I'll get get some time to
look at it more closely

Thank you for your suggestion.

It was my hope that I had simply not understood how to properly define the
schema in Solr, or that I had not understood how to use the existing Solr
functionality.

I will further look into the suggestions that I have received so far,
however I have concerns that my Solr project cannot proceed with the
technology present.  Lance may be correct in his assertion that I am using
the incorrect tool for the job.

Could this be solved with a multi-valued custom field type (including a
custom comparator)? The OP's situation deals with multi-valuing products for
each customer. If products contain strictly numeric fields then it seems
like a custom field implementation (or extension of BinaryField?) *should*
be easy - only the comparator part needs work. I'm not clear on how the
existing query parsers would handle this though, so there's probably some
work there too. SOLR-1131 seems like a more general solution that supports
analysis that numeric fields don't need.
