Solr: Retrieve field names from a solr index?

问题:

How can I query a solr instance for all (or prefixed) field names?

I want to use dynamic fields like

category_0_s
category_1_s
...

but i do not know how many may exist. So I want to retrieve all fields (preferably with the prefix "category_").

Any Ideas? Thanks

Use the luke handler:

http://solr:8983/solr/admin/luke?numTerms=0

Use a xpath to get all the field which has the tag dynamicBase matching the dynamic fields definition you are looking for.

回答2:

This query will return a comma-separated list of all the fields that are in use, including dynamic ones.

select?q=*:*&wt=csv&rows=0&facet

To answer the original question, this is how to get a list of all the fields starting with category_

select?q=*:*&wt=csv&rows=0&facet&fl=category_*

The presence of the facet parameter is needed to make this query work on newer versions of Solr. On older versions, it will work without it.

On older versions, a wildcard in the fl parameter won't work.

If you need to do this from your Java application you can use Solrj and LukeRequestRequestHandler.

Your code would look like this.

LukeRequest lukeRequest = new LukeRequest();
lukeRequest.setNumTerms(0);

LukeResponse lukeResponse = lukeRequest.process(server);

Map<String, FieldInfo> fieldInfoMap = lukeResponse.getFieldInfo();

for (Entry<String, FieldInfo> entry : fieldInfoMap.entrySet()) {

    String fieldName = entry.getKey();
    FieldInfo fieldInfo = entry.getValue();

    // process fieldInfo    
}
