Static field for document in Data Import Handlerfor Solr

Question

Im making an index in solr from db in the following way:

Answer 1

<document name="Index">  
<entity name="c" transformer="TemplateTransformer" query="SELECT * FROM C">  
  <field column="Name" name="name"/>  
  <field column="id" template="1"/>  
</entity>  
<entity name="p" transformer="TemplateTransformer" query="SELECT * FROM P">  
  <field column="Name" name="name"/>  
  <field column="id" template="1"/>  
</entity>  
</document> 

Answer 2

You can add a column to your SQL query that contains static data like this:

<document name="Index">  
  <entity name="c" query="SELECT *, 'foo' as NameFromC FROM C">  
    <field column="NameFromC" name="name"/>
  </entity>

  <entity name="p" query="SELECT *, 'bar' as NameFromP FROM P">  
    <field column="NameFromP" name="name"/>
  </entity>  
</document>

If you try to add a field with only name and template attributes, Solr will throw an error saying Field must have a column attribute.
