Hello, im trying to implement a user friendly search for phone numbers. These numbers consist out of two digit-tokens like "12345 67890". Finally I want the highlighting for the phone number in the search result, without any concerns about was this search result hit by field tel or copyField tel2. The field tel is splitted by a StandardTokenizer in two tokens "12345" AND "67890". And I want to catch up those people, who enter "1234567890" without any space. I use copyField tel2 to a solr.PatternReplaceCharFilterFactory to eliminate non digits followed by a solr.KeywordTokenizerFactory. In both cases the search hits as expected. The highlighter works well for tel or tel2, but I want the highlight always on field tel! Using f.tel.hl.alternateField=tel2 is returning the field value wihtout any highlighting. <lst name="params"> <str name="q">tel2:1234567890</str> <str name="f.tel.hl.alternateField">tel2</str> <str name="hl">true</str> <str name="hl.requireFieldMatch">true</str> <str name="hl.simple.pre"><em></str> <str name="hl.simple.post"></em></str> <str name="hl.fl">tel,tel2</str> <str name="fl">tel,tel2</str> <str name="wt">xml</str> <str name="fq">typ:person</str> </lst>
... <result name="response" numFound="1" start="0"> <doc> <str name="uid">user1</str> <str name="tel">12345 67890</str> <str name="tels">12345 67890</str></doc> </result> ... <lst name="highlighting"> <lst name="user1"> <arr name="tel"> <str>123456 67890</str> <!-- here should be a highlight --> </arr> <arr name="tels"> <str><em>123456 67890</em></str> </arr> </lst> </lst> Any idea? Or do I have to change my velocity macros, always looking for a different highlighted field? Best Regards
