Thanks Erick, This is how I was doing it but when I saw the Solr Cell
stuff I figured I'd give it a go. What I ended up doing is the following
ModifiableSolrParams params = indexer.index(artifact);
params.add("fmap.content", "my_custom_field");
params.add("extractFormat", "text");
ContentStreamUpdateRequest up = new ContentStreamUpdateRequest(
"/update/extract");
up.setParams(params);
FileStream f = new FileStream(new File(""));
up.addContentStream(f);
