David Smiley commented on SOLR-15789: ------------------------------------- Documentation updates like this are so simple that you can just submit a PR and don't worry about knowing Java. I think this is even possible directly in GitHub without leaving it. The PR creation has a template with some basic guidance. > Explicitly say that "inc" in atomic updates can be negative > ----------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: SOLR-15789 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SOLR-15789 > Project: Solr > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: documentation > Affects Versions: 8.10.1 > Reporter: Andy Lester > Priority: Minor > Labels: atomicupdate, documentation > > In [https://solr.apache.org/guide/8_10/updating-parts-of-documents.html] the > docs say: > "inc: Increments a numeric value by a specific amount. Must be specified as a > single numeric value." > I took this to be an analog to Redis's INCRBY, and I inferred from this that > the amount could only be a positive integer. Since there was no DECRBY, I > figured that the values could only increase. > Of course, it turns out that I can decrement the value by passing inc a > negative value. I think it would be good to explictly state that in the docs. -- This message was sent by Atlassian Jira (v8.20.1#820001) --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: issues-unsubscr...@solr.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: issues-h...@solr.apache.org
