I am using solrnet. I have a title and Description fields. I need to search both fields simultaneously. How do I do this? Jayendra's answer is correct, but if you want to do this without aggregating data in a single field at index-time (copyFields) and want to do it at query-time instead using the standard handler instead of dismax, in SolrNet you can do: var query = Query.Field("title").Is(mytitle) || Query.Field("Description").Is(mydescription); var results = solr.Query(query); See query operators and DSL for more information. If you are using a standard request handler - Create a new field

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. In SQL, this would be written like Name LIKE 'New York%'. My question - how do you write a LIKE query in Solr? I'm using the SolrNet library, if that makes a difference. 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

I already have the boost determined before hand. I have a field in the solr index called boost1 . This boost field will have a value from 1 to 10 similar to google PR rank. This is the boost that should be applied to every query ran in solr. here are the fields in my index Id Title Text Boost1 The boost field should be apply to every query. I am trying to implement functionality similar to Google PR rank. Is there a way to do this using solr? Jayendra you can add the boost during query e.g. q={!boost b=boost1} How_can_I_boost_the_score_of_newer_documents However, this may need to be added

I have "text_general" field in schema.xml <fieldType name="text_general" class="solr.TextField" positionIncrementGap="100"> <analyzer type="index"> <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> <analyzer type="query"> <tokenizer class="solr.WhitespaceTokenizerFactory"/> <filter class="solr.WordDelimiterFilterFactory" generateWordParts="1" generateNumberParts="1

I'm using sunspot . How can I run a LIKE query ( LIKE %q% )? I would like to do something like this: @search = Sunspot.search(User) do |q| q.text_fields { with(:company_name).like(params[:q]) } end.results instead of: @search = Sunspot.search(User) do |q| q.text_fields { with(:company_name).starting_with(params[:q]) } end.results which partially works for me. Reviewing the sunspot code, I found this piece of code: class StartingWith < Base private def to_solr_conditional "#{solr_value(@value)}*" end end It basically generates the following sunspot search hash: Sunspot.search(User) do |q| q
