in solrconfig.xml),
which is *:*. This
query will find all
records in the index for
this core. We kept the
other defaults, but the
table below explains
these options, which
are also covered in
detail in later parts of
this Guide.
The response is shown
to the right of the form.
Requests to Solr are
simply HTTP requests,
and the query
submitted is shown in
light type above the
results; if you click on
this it will open a new
browser window with
just this request and
response (without the
rest of the Solr Admin
UI). The rest of the
response is shown in
JSON, which is part of
the request (see the
wt=json part at the
end).
The response has at
least two sections, but
may have several
more depending on the
options chosen. The two sections it always has are the responseHeader and the response. The responseHeader includes the status of the
search ( status), the processing time ( QTime), and the parameters ( params) that were used to process the query.
The response includes the documents that matched the query, in doc sub-sections. The fields return depend on the parameters of the query
(and the defaults of the request handler used). The number of results is also included in this section.
This screen allows you to experiment with different query options, and inspect how your documents were indexed. The query parameters
available on the form are some basic options that most users want to have available, but there are dozens more available which could be simply
added to the basic request by hand (if opened in a browser). The table below explains the parameters available:
Field
Request-handler
Description
Specifies the query handler for the request. If a query handler is not specified, Solr processes the response with the
standard query handler.
q The query event. See Searching for an explanation of this parameter.
fq The filter queries. See Common Query Parameters for more information on this parameter.
sort
Sorts the response to a query in either ascending or descending order based on the response's score or another specified
characteristic.
start, rows start is the offset into the query result starting at which documents should be returned. The default value is 0, meaning
that the query should return results starting with the first document that matches. This field accepts the same syntax as the
start query parameter, which is described in Searching. rows is the number of rows to return.
fl
wt
indent
debugQuery
Defines the fields to return for each document. You can explicitly list the stored fields you want to have returned by
separating them with either a comma or a space. In Solr 4, the results of functions can also be included in the fl list.
Specifies the Response Writer to be used to format the query response. Defaults to XML if not specified.
Click this button to request that the Response Writer use indentation to make the responses more readable.
Click this button to augment the query response with debugging information, including "explain info" for each document
returned. This debugging information is intended to be intelligible to the administrator or programmer.
dismax Click this button to enable the Dismax query parser. See The DisMax Query Parser for further information.
edismax Click this button to enable the Extended query parser. See The Extended DisMax Query Parser for further information.
