: To quote from the wiki, ... That's all true ... but Bill explicitly said he wanted to use SignatureUpdateProcessorFactory to generate a uniqueKey from the content field post-extraction so he could dedup documents with the same content ... his question was how to get that key after adding a doc.
Using a unique literal.field value will work -- but only as the value of a secondary field that he can then query on to get the uniqueKeyField value. : > : You could create your own unique ID and pass it in with the : > : literal.field=value feature. : > : > By which Lance means you could specify an unique value in a differnet : > field from yoru uniqueKey field, and then query on that field:value pair : > to get the doc after it's been added -- but that query will only work : > until some other version of the doc (with some other value) overwrites it. : > so you'd esentially have to query for the field:value to lookup the : > uniqueKey. : > : > it seems like it should definitely be feasible for the : > Update RequestHandlers to return the uniqueKeyField values for all the : > added docs (regardless of wether the key was included in the request, or : > added by an UpdateProcessor -- but i'm not sure how that would fit in with : > the SolrJ API. : > : > would you mind opening a feature request in Jira? : > : > : > : > -Hoss : > : > : : : : -- : Lance Norskog : goks...@gmail.com : -Hoss
