Yonik Seeley commented on SOLR-877:
-----------------------------------

Hmmm, looking at the wiki examples, I think there are some more quick 
improvements we can do...

>From the wiki:
bq. To use in auto-suggest, add in a lower bound, an upper bound and make the 
lower bound exclusive of the input term, as in: 
http://localhost:8983/solr/terms?terms.fl=name&terms.lower=at&terms.prefix=at&terms.lower.incl=false&terms.upper=b&indent=true

Unless I'm missing something, it doesn't make sense to exclude the lower 
bound... seems like it would often be useful to know if what the user typed in 
matched a term in the index.... excluding it would lead one to believe that it 
doesn't exist.

But the improvement is that one should simply be able to specify a prefix:
http://localhost:8983/solr/terms?terms.fl=name&terms.prefix=at

The rest should be implementation details in Solr to make it efficient (i.e. 
Solr should know to start at "at" in the TermEnum if that's the prefix.)

> I wrote a simple SearchComponent on the plane the other day that gives access 
> to Lucene's TermEnum capabilities.  I think this will be useful for doing 
> auto-suggest and other term based operations.  My first draft is not 
> distributed, but it probably should be made to do so eventually.
