Jack Krupansky commented on SOLR-5017: -------------------------------------- bq. Not sure what you mean by "explicit routing" I mean where the user has placed a prefix and "!" in front of a key value. Granted, it isn't explicitly stating the shard, and is really simply a "surrogate" key value to use for sharding. Is there better terminology for the fact that they used the "!" notation? Question for Noble: If a shard field is specified and there is a "!" on a document key, which takes precedence? > Allow sharding based on the value of a field > -------------------------------------------- > > Key: SOLR-5017 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SOLR-5017 > Project: Solr > Issue Type: Sub-task > Reporter: Noble Paul > Assignee: Noble Paul > > We should be able to create a collection where sharding is done based on the > value of a given field > collections can be created with shardField=fieldName, which will be persisted > in DocCollection in ZK > implicit DocRouter would look at this field instead of _shard_ field > CompositeIdDocRouter can also use this field instead of looking at the id > field. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
