Yonik Seeley commented on SOLR-351: ----------------------------------- > a lot of questions about what to do when newSearchers are opened Yeah, it's not actually getValueSource() where one would normally want the request... ValueSource is like a Query - relatively independent of context. getValues(IndexReader reader) is where you normally want it.. but there are layers of Lucene in between that know nothing of Solr. > external value source > --------------------- > > Key: SOLR-351 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SOLR-351 > Project: Solr > Issue Type: New Feature > Reporter: Yonik Seeley > > Need a way to rapidly do a bulk update of a single field for use as a > component in a function query (no need to be able to search on it). > Idea: create an ExternalValueSource fieldType that reads it's values from a > file. The file could be simple id,val records, and stored in the index > directory so it would get replicated. > Values could optionally be updated more often than the searcher > (hashCode/equals should take this into account to prevent caching issues). -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - You can reply to this email to add a comment to the issue online.
