The other option would be a custom QParserPlugin.

Re: Changing Solr Query Syntax

2008-03-18 Thread Shalin Shekhar Mangar
Hi Ben,

If I had to do this, I would start by adding a custom
javax.servlet.Filter into Solr. It should work fine since all you're
doing is replacing characters in the q parameter for requests coming
into /select handler. It's a bit hackish but that's exactly what
you're trying to do :)

Don't know if there's an alternate/easier way.

Re: Changing Solr Query Syntax

2008-03-18 Thread Ben Sanchez
Hi Shalin, thanks a lot for answering that fast.

Use Case:
I'm migrating from a proprietary index server (XYZ)  to Solr. All my
applications and my customer's applications relay on the query specification
of XYZ. It would be hard to modify all those apps to use the Solr Query
Syntax (although, it would be ideal, Sorl query is a lot superior than that
of XYZ).

Basically I need  to replace : with = ; + with / and = with :  in the query
syntax.

Thank you.

Hi Ben,

It would be nice if you can tell us your use-case so that we can be
more helpful.

Why does the normal query syntax not work well for you? What are you
trying to accomplish? Maybe there is an easier way.

Changing Solr Query Syntax

2008-03-18 Thread Ben Sanchez
Hi solr users,
I need to change the query format for solr a little bit. How can I
accomplish this. I don't wan to modify the underlying lucene query
specification but just the way I query the index through the the GET http
method in solr.
Thanks a lot for your help.
