RE: Creating a distributed search in a searchComponent
I was looking for answer to the same question, and have similar concern. Looks like any serious customization work requires developing custom SearchComponent, but it's not clear to me how Solr designer wanted this to be done. I have more confident to either do it at Lucene level, or stay on client side and using something like Multi-core (as discussed here http://wiki.apache.org/solr/MultipleIndexes).

After looking at the source it seems there are two seperate paths for distributed and regular queries, however the prepare method for for all components is run before the shards parameter is checked. So I can build the shards portion by using the prepare method of the my own search component. However I'm not sure if this is the greatest idea in case solr changes at some point. -Nick -Original Message- From: Nick Bailey nicholas.bai...@rackspace.com Sent: Wednesday, May 20, 2009 1:29pm To: solr-user@lucene.apache.org Subject: Creating a distributed search in a searchComponent Hi, I am wondering if it is possible to basically add the distributed portion of a search query inside of a searchComponent. I am hoping to build my own component and add it as a first-component to the StandardRequestHandler. Then hopefully I will be able to use this component to build the shards parameter of the query and have the Handler then treat the query as a distributed search. Anyone have any experience or know if this is possible? Thanks, Nick _ Hotmail® has ever-growing storage!

You can also add a ServletFilter before SolrDispatchFilter and add the parameters before Solr processes the query. -- Regards, Shalin Shekhar Mangar.

Also look at SOLR-565 and see if that helps you. https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SOLR-565 On Thu, May 21, 2009 at 9:58 PM, Shalin Shekhar Mangar shalinman...@gmail.com wrote: On Wed, May 20, 2009 at 10:59 PM, Nick Bailey nicholas.bai...@rackspace.com wrote: Hi, I am wondering if it is possible to basically add the distributed portion of a search query inside of a searchComponent.
