Simon Willnauer commented on LUCENE-8198: ----------------------------------------- ah nevermind I think we need to add a new method something like this: {code:java} public long addAndUpdateDocument(Term term, Iterable<? extends IndexableField> doc, Field... dvUpdates){code} which is a combination of: {code:java} addDocument(Iterable<? extends IndexableField> doc) + updateDocValues(Term term, Field... fields){code} > Add ability to persist deletes across merges > -------------------------------------------- > > Key: LUCENE-8198 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LUCENE-8198 > Project: Lucene - Core > Issue Type: Improvement > Affects Versions: 7.3, master (8.0) > Reporter: Simon Willnauer > Assignee: Simon Willnauer > Priority: Major > Attachments: LUCENE-8198.patch > > > This allows conditionally persist deletes on a per document basis to prevent > them from being merged away. This expert feature is useful to maintain > history of documents in the index where otherwise a duplicate storage > mechanism would be needed. For instance features like CouchDBs changes API > can be build on top of persistent deletes. While using persistent deletes has > a considerably small overhead at merge time or when deletes applied to fully > deleted segments, there is no impact if persistent deletes are unused. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v7.6.3#76005) --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: dev-unsubscr...@lucene.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: dev-h...@lucene.apache.org
