How to build FacetQuery using spring-data-solr which returns all documents (*:*) from solr index

Question

I want to write a FacetQuery which may not have any criteria except one filter condition (fq). Following query is an example which I want to build using spring-data-solr API.

http://localhost:8983/solr/jpevents/select?q=*:*&fq=categoryIds:(1101)&facet=true&facet.mincount=1&facet.limit=1&facet.field=primaryCategoryId

How can I set query parameter (q=*:*) in FacetQuery?

Environment: I'm writing a Spring MVC based Search API using spring-data-solr 1.0.0.RELEASE with Solr 4.4.0 and Spring 3.2.4.RELEASE.

Answer 1

you can do this combining @Query and @Facet

    @Facet(fields={"primaryCategoryId"}, minCount=1, limit=1)
    @Query(value="*:*", filters="categoryIds:(?0)")
    public FacetPage<JPEvents> XYZ(List<Long> categories, Pageable page);

or execute FacetQuery using SolrTemplate.

   FacetQuery query = new SimpleFacetQuery(new SimpleStringCriteria("*:*"))
     .setFacetOptions(new FacetOptions("primaryCategoryId")
     .setFacetMinCount(1).setFacetLimit(1));
   query.setPageRequest(pageable);
   solrTemplate.queryForFacetPage(query, JPEvents.class);

I have done something like this :

public static void main()
{
String url = "http://localhost:8983/solr/autocomplete";
    SolrServer solrServer = new HttpSolrServer(url);
    SolrQuery query = new SolrQuery();
    query.set("q", "*");
    query.addFilterQuery("name:*");
    query.setFacet(true);
    query.addFacetField("name");
    System.out.println(query);
    QueryResponse queryResponse = solrServer.query(query);
    List<FacetField> facetFields = queryResponse.getFacetFields();
    FacetField cnameMainFacetField = queryResponse.getFacetField("name");
    for (Count cnameAndCount : cnameMainFacetField.getValues()) {
        String cnameMain = cnameAndCount.getName();
        System.out.println(cnameMain);
        System.out.println(cnameAndCount.getCount());
    }

This gives me correct counts of faceted fields. Hope you are able to understand what I am doing. Adding output for better understanding:

q=*&fq=name%3A*&facet=true&facet.field=name
a
10
an
7
w
7
m
6
and
5
c
5
p

d
