Jan Høydahl updated SOLR-8583:
------------------------------
    Attachment: SOLR-8583.patch

Attaching a first working patch.

There is a new param {{hl.highlightAlternate=true}} which when enabled will 
apply the standard highlighter on the alternate field.

We do this by calling {{doHighlightingByHighlighter()}} again on the alternate 
field, but with some hardcoded parameters: 
{{hl.snippets=1&hl.fragsize=Int.MAX}}. We also set {{hl.maxAnalyzedChars}} 
equal to {{hl.maxAlternateFieldLength}} if applicable.

There is one TODO. To be able to override these params, I needed to clone the 
{{SolrParams}} object on the request and replace it with a 
{{ModifialbleSolrParams}}, and then put back the old. Might not be thread 
safe... Perhaps a better way is to add a new {{params}} argument to 
doHighlightingByHighlighter?

Also, I have not tested what happens if people use some other highlighter like 
FVH. I suspect that other highlighters may not respect {{hl.pre}}?

> Today, you can configure hl.alternateField for highlighter to display if no 
> snippets were produced from original field. But the contents of the fallback 
> field is output without highlighting the original query terms.
> Suggest that the alternate field is subject to highlighting only, not snippet 
> generation.
