Karl Wright commented on SOLR-2026:
-----------------------------------
Re: Distributed Search:
Luckily, shards from a distributed search are assembled by the SearchHandler,
and my modifications for this feature force this assembly to happen on every
Lucene query in the sequence in turn. So, at that level, it all works
properly. On the other hand, since sharding is specified as part of the
request arguments, it is probably not currently possible to specify different
sharding for each of the queries in the sequence. I imagine this can be
addressed by future patches that allow default sharding to be optionally
specified in the solrconfig.xml file on a per-query basis.

> Several known cases exist where multiple index searches need to be performed
> in order to arrive at the final result. Typically, these have the constraint
> that the results from one search query are required in order to form a
> subsequent search query. While it is possible to write a custom
> QueryComponent or search handler to perform this task, an extension to the
> SearchHandler base class would readily permit such query sequences to be
> configured using solrconfig.xml.
> I will be therefore writing and attaching a patch tomorrow morning which
> supports this extended functionality in a backwards-compatible manner. The
> tricky part, which is figuring out how to funnel the output of the previous
> search result into the next query, can be readily achieved by use of the
> SolrRequestObject.getContext() functionality. The stipulation will therefore
> be that the SolrRequestObject's lifetime will be that of the entire request,
> which makes complete sense. (The SolrResponseObject's lifetime will, on the
> other hand, be limited to a single query, and the last response so formed
> will be what gets actually returned by SearchHandler.)
