Alternatively you can do this in solr side with an UpdateProcessor [1],
something like:
public void processAdd(AddUpdateCommand cmd) throws IOException {
SolrInputDocument doc = cmd.getSolrInputDocument();
Object v = doc.getFieldValue( "fieldX" );
if( v != null ) {
String fieldX = (String) v.toString();
if("".equals(fieldX.trim()) ) {
doc.removeField( "fieldX" );
}
}
super.processAdd(cmd);
}
