In this tutorial, we will see how to add a facet in the Datafari UI. The facet here will be a facet field, that means that the source of the faceting are the different values of the Solr field.
...
- Add the custom field to the Solr schema
Edit custom_fields.xml located incl located in /opt/datafari/solr/solr_home/FileShare/conf/customs_schema/custom_fields.xml and schema and add your new field in JSON format.It needs to be at least indexed (not necessarily stored) and not tokenized so if I want to add the field named job, the configuration will be :
| Code Block | ||
|---|---|---|
| ||
<field name={ "name":"job", type= "type":"string" indexed="true" stored="true" multiValued="false"/>, "stored":true, "multiValued":false } |
Don't forget to save your changes into the file.
- Reload the FileShare core for Solr to load your new schema
Go to the Datafari Admin User Interface (UI) then click on Search Engine Administration then on Solr Administration
Then click on Core Admin on the main window, check if FileShare is highlighted then click on the Reload button
...
- Launch the script addCustomSchemaInfo.sh
Launch the script addCustomSchemaInfo.sh located into /opt/datafari/solr/solr_home/FileShare/conf/customs_schema :
| Code Block |
|---|
cd /opt/datafari/solr/solr_home/FileShare/conf/customs_schema
bash addCustomSchemaInfo.sh |
The modifications will be directly applied thanks to the Solr schema API.
| Info |
|---|
note that you can also do it directly by the Solr Admin UI BUT keep in mind that the modifications done will be added in the managed-schema file. If you upgrade Datafari in the future your modifications will be lost. To do so : Access the Datafari Admin UI > Search Engine Administration > Solr Administration > collection = FileShare > schema > add field > name = "job" (for this example) > field type = "string" > stored = TRUE > indexed = TRUE |
After that, verify that the new field is present by selecting "index fields" in the admin UI > Search Engine Administration > Index Fields > Scroll down list of fields to confirm that "job" is present.
- So now we can configure ManifoldCF. First thing is obviously to configure the repository connection and the job configuration.
