Re: index special characters solr
Thanks. I'm sure someone else will have the same issue at some point. -- Jack Krupansky -Original Message- From: KPK Sent: Tuesday, June 05, 2012 9:51 PM To: solr-user@lucene.apache.org Subject: Re: index special characters solr Thanks Jack for your help! I found my mistake, rather than classifying those special characters as ALPHA , I classified it as a DIGIT. Also I missed the same entry for search analyzer. So probably that was the reason for not getting relevant results. I spent a lot of time figuring this out. So I'll paste my code snippet of schema.xml which was changed for newbies so that they dont waste so much time in this. I classified my field as text in which I wanted to search for keywords including special characters. In fieldType definition modify the filter class="solr.WordDelimiterFilterFactory" in BOTH and And make a new characters.txt in the same folder as schema.xml and add the content : $ => ALPHA % => ALPHA (i wanted $ and % to behave as alphabets so that they could be searched) Then restart jetty/tomcat This is how i solved this problem. Hope this would help someone :) -- View this message in context: http://lucene.472066.n3.nabble.com/index-special-characters-solr-tp3987157p3987891.html Sent from the Solr - User mailing list archive at Nabble.com.

Re: index special characters solr
Thanks for your reply! I tried using the types field in WordDelimiterFilterFactory wherein I was passing a text file which contained % $ as alphabets. But even then it didnt get indexed and neither did it show up in search results. Am I missing something?

Re: index special characters solr
Special characters are filtered out of (most) "text" fields, but are preserved in "string" fields. String fields might suit your needs, but are inconvenient for keyword searching. You may be able to use the "types" option of the WordDelimiterFilterFactory to pass in a custom character type table that has the special characters treated as alphabetic characters. Otherwise, you may have to customize the code yourself. -- Jack Krupansky -Original Message- From: KPK Sent: Thursday, May 31, 2012 7:38 PM To: solr-user@lucene.apache.org Subject: index special characters solr Hi all Can somebody please tell me how can I build an index in solr where one of my field contains special characters like $ , % I would also like to search on the same characters on that particular field.
