You need a new analyzed field with the EdgeNGramTokenizer or you can try facet.prefix for this to work. To retrieve the number of locations for that city, just use the results from the faceting engine as usual.
I'm unsure which approach is actually faster but i'd guess using the EdgeNGramTokenizer is faster, but also takes up more disk space. Using the faceting engine will not take more disk space. -----Original message----- From: PeterKerk <vettepa...@hotmail.com> Sent: Thu 19-08-2010 16:46 To: solr-user@lucene.apache.org; Subject: Autosuggest on PART of cityname I want to have a Google-like autosuggest function on citynames. So when user types some characters I want to show cities that match those characters but ALSO the amount of locations that are in that city. Now with Solr I now have the parameter: "&fq=title:Bost" But the result doesnt show the city Boston. So the fq parameter now seems to be an exact match, where I want it to be a partial match as well, more like this in SQL: WHERE title LIKE '<value>%' How can I do this? -- View this message in context: http://lucene.472066.n3.nabble.com/Autosuggest-on-PART-of-cityname-tp1226088p1226088.html Sent from the Solr - User mailing list archive at Nabble.com.
