Noble Paul commented on SOLR-5017:
----------------------------------
bq.What can be accomplished by this that cannot be accomplished with the
current syntax?
* If I have a already working system where ids cannot be changed, I have no
option with the current scheme of things .
* What if I to have a clean 'id' value which is devoid of extra information?
Should I do id.substring(id.indexOf("!") everytime I use it elsewhere ?
bq.One place where it'll be easy to get wrong....
AFAIK everyone relies on the DocRouter to identify the right shard . If your
code is using that API then your code should continue to work right
> Allow sharding based on the value of a field

> 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.
