Re: Customizing results
Generally a good idea, but be prepared to entertain requests that should also ask you to be able to perform the query using those aliases. I mean when you talk about something similar to aliases in SQL, those aliases can be used in SQL scripts in the where clause too.

customizing results in StandardQueryHandler
Hi, In my usecase, I query a set of fields. Then based on the results, I want to output a customized set of fields. Can I do this without using a search component? E:g. I query for fields f1, f2, f3, f4. Now based on some conditions, I want to output just f1, f3, f4 (the list of final fields may vary). How do I rewrite the resultant xml optimally? Any thoughts on this will be helpful Thanks, Kalyan

isn't this just: fl=f1,f3,f4 etc or am I missing something? On Oct 24, 2008, at 12:26 PM, Manepalli, Kalyan wrote: Hi, In my usecase, I query a set of fields.

RE: customizing results in StandardQueryHandler
Ryan, Actually, what I need is: I always query for a set of fields say (f1, f2, f3 .. f6). Now once I get the results, based on some logic, I need to generate the XML which is customized and contains only fields say (f2, f3, and some new data). So the fl will always be (f1 ... f6) Thanks, Kalyan Manepalli -Original Message- From: Ryan McKinley [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Friday, October 24, 2008 1:25 PM To: solr-user@lucene.apache.org Subject: Re: customizing results in StandardQueryHandler isn't this just: fl=f1,f3,f4 etc or am I missing something?

Re: customizing results in StandardQueryHandler
I'm still not following... Does the logic depend on the result? That is, are you asking for doc A to have f1,f2 and doc B to have f1,f4? If that is your question, then no -- as is, the ResponseWriter will write the same fields for every document. When you say (f2, f3, and some new data) -- where does the new data come from? Are you trying to augment the results of a document with something else? If so, take a look at the local solr patch in: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LUCENE-1387 that adds a distance calculation to each matched document.
