Yonik Seeley commented on SOLR-4197: ------------------------------------ This is why "defType" stands for "default type" - it's only the default and may be overridden. Adding a space would disable recognition of localParams. For example, when sending "q" through to Solr, construct it like so: "q" = " " + userQuery; Or you could specify the query type of "q" using localParams and put the user query in "qq": q={!edismax v=$qq} qq=hello there > EDismax allows end users to use local params in q= to override global params > ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: SOLR-4197 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SOLR-4197 > Project: Solr > Issue Type: Bug > Affects Versions: 3.5, 3.6, 4.0 > Reporter: Peter Wolanin > > Edismax is advertised as suitable to be used to "process advanced user input > directly". Thus, it would seem reasonable to have an application directly > pass user input in the q= parameter to a back-end Solr server. > However, it seems that users can enter local params at the start of q= which > override the global params that the application (e.g. website) may have set > on the query string. Confirmed with Erik Hatcher that this is somewhat > unexpected behavior (though one could argue it's an expected feature of any > query parser) > Proposed fix - add a parameter (e.g. that can be used as an invariant) that > can be passed to inhibit Solr from using local params from the q= parameter. > This is somewhat related to SOLR-1687 -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
