the defaults for a <field/> come from the <fieldType/> specified by the "type" attribute.
>From that point, the default behavior of a <fieldType/> can vary by the individual FieldType "class" implementation (ie: most fields default to omitTermFreqAndPositions="true" but TextField defaults to false) or by the "version" attribute of the schema (multiValued defaults to "true" if version < 1.1, otherwise false) or by both (omitNorms defaults to true for most primitive types *except* TextField, but only if version > 1.4) Bottom line: if you want to know how a field/fieldtype is going to behave by default, your best bet is to configure it and use the Schema Browser to see what is set by default. : Date: Mon, 27 Apr 2015 10:56:12 -0400 : From: Steven White <swhite4...@gmail.com> : Reply-To: solr-user@lucene.apache.org : To: solr-user@lucene.apache.org : Subject: Field attribute default value : : Hi Everyone, : : I'm looking at : https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/solr/Defining+Fields and : https://wiki.apache.org/solr/SchemaXml but cannot find an answer, so maybe : it is someplace else? : : I need to know what is the default value for each field attribute (when : that attribute is missing). For example, what's the default for "indexed" : if it is missing? What about "stored", "docValues", etc.? : : Thanks, : : Steve : -Hoss http://www.lucidworks.com/
