help with Solr

[Kishen Singh Punjabi]

Hi,

Iam using Solr 4.3. My solrconfig.xml

<searchComponent name="suggest" class="solr.SpellCheckComponent"> <lst name="spellchecker"> <str name="name">suggest</str> <str name="classname">org.apache.solr.spelling.suggest.Suggester</str> <str name="lookupImpl">org.apache.solr.spelling.suggest.fst.FSTLookup</str> <str name="field">description_suggest</str> <str name="buildOnCommit">true</str> </lst> </searchComponent> <requestHandler class="org.apache.solr.handler.component.SearchHandler" name="/suggest"> <lst name="defaults"> <str name="spellcheck">true</str> <str name="spellcheck.dictionary">suggest</str> <str name="spellcheck.onlyMorePopular">true</str> <str name="spellcheck.count">10</str> <str name="spellcheck.collate">false</str> </lst> <arr name="components"> <str>suggest</str> </arr> </requestHandler>

My schema.xml

"Description" is a column in a Database Table -

<field name="description" type="text_general" indexed="true" stored="true" /> <field name="description_suggest" type="description_suggest_type" indexed="true" stored="false" multiValued="false" />

CopyField -

<copyField source="description" dest="description_suggest" />

FieldType -
<fieldType name="description_suggest_type" class="solr.TextField" positionIncrementGap="100"> <analyzer> <tokenizer class="solr.KeywordTokenizerFactory" /> <filter class="solr.LowerCaseFilterFactory" /> </analyzer> </fieldType>


In DB I have details like

The Movie new_movie_is_awesome The movie is boring
When I query as

q=*mo*&wt=xml&indent=true

Returns me only - movie
I want the solr to return the below as suggestions which is not happening :(

The Movie new_movie_is_awesome The movie is boring

What configuration need to be updated

I have also tried

Schema.xml

<field name="description" type="text_auto" indexed="true" stored="true" /> <copyField source="description" dest="text" /> <fieldType class="solr.TextField" name="text_auto" positionIncrementGap="100"> <analyzer> <tokenizer class="solr.WhitespaceTokenizerFactory"/> <filter class="solr.WordDelimiterFilterFactory" generateWordParts="1" generateNumberParts="1" catenateWords="1" catenateNumbers="1" catenateAll="0" splitOnCaseChange="1"/> <filter class="solr.LowerCaseFilterFactory"/> </analyzer> </fieldType>

Solrconfig.xml

<searchComponent name="suggest" class="solr.SpellCheckComponent"> <lst name="spellchecker"> <str name="name">suggest</str> <str name="classname">org.apache.solr.spelling.suggest.Suggester</str> <str name="lookupImpl">org.apache.solr.spelling.suggest.tst.TSTLookup</str> <str name="field">description</str> </lst> </searchComponent> <requestHandler name="/suggest" class="org.apache.solr.handler.component.SearchHandler"> <lst name="defaults"> <str name="spellcheck">true</str> <str name="spellcheck.dictionary">suggest</str> <str name="spellcheck.count">10</str> </lst> <arr name="components"> <str>suggest</str> </arr> </requestHandler>


Is /suggest component faster than the /select ? I can have only the required columns indexed and and return only the required fields data. In such case is /select not same as /suggest ?

Thanks in Advance!!

I'd start with the Solr mailing list and IRC channel http://lucene.apache.org/solr/discussion.html

The Solr user mailing list would seem like an obvious starting point.
