Jan,

Would be glad to open a JIRA issue, but I'm a U/X architect not a Java developer, so wouldn't be able to patch anything.

Dan,

I'm sure it is possible. Perhaps it should even be possible to combine fixed column 
positions and wildcard, by fl=fieldA,fieldB,* to "lock" the named fields as 
first columns followed by a (sorted) list of the rest of the fields.

Anyway, the first step is for you to create a JIRA issue and next step is to 
contribute a patch. See http://wiki.apache.org/solr/HowToContribute

Another useful addition would be to add a csv sort parameter if requesting all 
(*) fields -- a way to control the field order on export.

E.g.

&wt=csv&fl=*&csv.fl.sort=alpha asc

I've had cases where:

a) I'm returning too many fields to explicitly define 
fl=field_J,field_Z,field_A,etc.

b) WANTED all the fields returned (a great way to dump data to a spreadsheet)

but wanted a more orderly csv field structure than the one returned.

Is this possible?

Thanks,

Dan

Jan Høydahl commented on SOLR-2970:
-----------------------------------

Created SOLR-2974 for B)

I see that today you can explicitly specify non-existing fields in field-list and they 
will all end up in the response, e.g.&wt=csv&fl=id,type,foo,nonexisting

If this is useful in some cases then let's continue to support it - coupled 
with the improvement in SOLR-2974
But the default case when "fl" is not specified, or specified as "*", CSV 
writer should output only the stored fields.
