I'm seeing a problem here when paging through large result sets. It appears as though the order and count is changing as I'm walking through a given result set.
For instance, I make a call: http://en.wikipedia.org/w/api.php?srprop=sectiontitle&srlimit=25&srsearch=10.1371%2Fjournal.pone.0008776&action=query&format=xml&list=search&sroffset=0&srwhat=text And I see I get 689 results. But wait, I make the call again, and there is 690. OK, you mirror your lucene indexes across a cluster and one is slightly out of sync. Not a big deal. I adjust the offset and move on. http://en.wikipedia.org/w/api.php?srprop=sectiontitle&srlimit=25&srsearch=10.1371%2Fjournal.pone.0008776&action=query&format=xml&list=search&sroffset=25&srwhat=text But now... whenever I get the 689 record set, the order appears changed. I can't page the results without the order being deterministic! #1 Is there a way to specify order for this command? #2 Did I find a bug with one your lucene indexes? Thanks in advance for any insights. -Joe _______________________________________________ Mediawiki-api mailing list Mediawiki-api@lists.wikimedia.org https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/mediawiki-api
