Retrieving specific fields in a Solr query?
Question
I am running a Solr instance on Jetty and when I search using the Solr admin panel, it returns the entire document. What should I do to get only specified fields from each Solr document returned by the search?
Solution
/?q=query&fl=field1,field2,field3
OTHER TIPS
From the Solr Admin home page, click on "Full Interface". On that page there is a box called "Fields to Return". You can list the you want here (comma-separated). "*" means all fields.
http://xx.xxx.xx.xx:8983/solr/corename/select?indent=on&q=*:*&wt=json&fl=ImageID,Imagepath,Category
This link has fl parameter: fl is a field list, which will display the specified fields from the indexed list.
The best way is to run the query from Admin concole. When we run it, it also provides the actuall SQL query executed. Just copy the query and use it.
About the question: select specific fields from the table. In the admin console look for 'FL' text box. write the field names you want to retrieve, comma sapereted. Hit the 'Execute Query' button. Top right side the SQL will be available.
Generated Query: ......select?fl=FIELDNAME&indent=on&q=:&wt=json
you can simply pass fl parameter with required fields name in your query.
&fl=field1,field2,field3&query=:
your response documents contains only mentioned fields.
