: Is there a way to implement a custom request handler or similar to get : solr to apply an XSLT transform to the content stream before it attempts : to parse it? If not possible OOTB, where would be the right place to : add said functionality?
take a look at SOLR-285 and SOLR-370 ... a RequestHandler is the right way to go, the biggest problems with the patch in SOLR-285 at the moment are: a) i wrote it and i don't know much about doing XSLT transformations in java efficiently. b) the existing XSLT Transformer "caching" code in Solr is really trivial and not suitable for any real volume ... if it were overhauled to take advantage of the standard SolrCache APIs it would be a lot more reusable by both the XsltResponseWriter and a new XsltUpdateHandler. -Hoss
