Jan Høydahl commented on SOLR-2202:
-----------------------------------
This is great! I'll see if I can test it a bit more next week, and see if I
spot any bugs or improvements.
This will be a great addition.
It would be kind of nice to demo the fieldType in all the prices in the
exampledocs. Then we need to change fieldType of the "price" field to MoneyType
etc. Only problem then is that we cannot demo price range facets in /browse as
we do now.
Do anyone know what it takes to make range facets work with this field type?
And a minor one: Why do we call the class MoneyType? All the other fields are
called XxxField (except for the LatLonType and PointType). Is this intentional.
To me it would sound even better with "CurrencyField" :)

> Provides support for monetary values to Solr/Lucene with query-time currency
> conversion. The following features are supported:
> - Point queries
> - Range quries
> - Sorting
> - Currency parsing by either currency code or symbol.
> - Symmetric & Asymmetric exchange rates. (Asymmetric exchange rates are
> useful if there are fees associated with exchanging the currency.)
> At indexing time, money fields can be indexed in a native currency. For
> example, if a product on an e-commerce site is listed in Euros, indexing the
> price field as "1000,EUR" will index it appropriately. By altering the
> currency.xml file, the sorting and querying against Solr can take into
> account fluctuations in currency exchange rates without having to re-index
> the documents.
> The new "money" field type is a polyfield which indexes two fields, one which
> contains the amount of the value and another which contains the currency code
> or symbol. The currency metadata (names, symbols, codes, and exchange rates)
> are expected to be in an xml file which is pointed to by the field type
> declaration in the schema.xml.
> The current patch is factored such that Money utility functions and
> configuration metadata lie in Lucene (see MoneyUtil and CurrencyConfig),
> while the MoneyType and MoneyValueSource lie in Solr. This was meant to
> mirror the work being done on the spacial field types.
> This patch will be getting used to power the international search
> capabilities of the search engine at Etsy.
