Solr Query with LIKE Clause

Question

I\'m working with Solr and I\'d like to know if it is possible to have a LIKE clause in the query. For example, I want to know all organizations with \"New York\" in the title.

Answer 1

You just search for "New York", but first you need to properly configure your field's analyzer. For example you might want to start with a field type like text_general as defined in the default Solr schema. This field type will tokenize on whitespace and other common word separators, then apply a filter of stopwords, then lowercase the terms in order to make searches case-insensitive.

More information about analyzers in the Solr wiki.
