Hi, guys!
As i see in Solr 7.x there are changes at fields types, type int is deprecated to pint, but Moodle-based search plugin uses int type
Source: https://lucene.apache.org/solr/guide/7_0/field-types-included-with-solr.html
Am i right?
The schema currently uses a type name 'int' which is defined, when you install on Solr 6, as an org.apache.solr.schema.TrieIntField.
Looking at the docs I'm not clear whether this type name 'int' would be defined on Solr 7 as the new IntPointField. You could find out by installing a Solr 7, connecting Moodle to it and having it define the schema, then looking in 'managed-schema' file within the configuration for a line like:
<fieldType name="int" class="solr.TrieIntField" positionIncrementGap="0" docValues="true" precisionStep="0"/>
Maybe that would be different in Solr 7? I'm not quite clear how the schema installation works and I don't have time to try right now....
Sam, i maked a track with solution https://tracker.moodle.org/browse/MDL-60759
Apache Solr 7.1.0 was released not so far away (Nov-2-2017), so there are only few users of this version at the moment. And they maked Trie* types as deprecated against v6 or lower: http://lucene.apache.org/solr/7_1_0/changes/Changes.html#v7.0.0.upgrading_from_solr_6.x
You can take a look for track with solution
