Hi Solr masters,
I just wanted to confirm what i read is the best and optimal way of doing spell check correction.
i am using index based spell check.
For this as the doc says
Create a field ex. my_text with a fieldType my_text_fl which has all the filters defined.
Copy all the othe fields data to the field my_text using copy features.
In the solr config file in the searchComponent which is spellcheck add the below code
<searchComponent name="spellcheck" class="solr.SpellCheckComponent">
<lst name="spellchecker">
<str name="name">mySpellChecker</str>
<str name="field">spell_text</str>
<!-- Use a different Distance Measure -->
<str name="distanceMeasure">org.apache.lucene.search.spell.JaroWinklerDistance</str>
<str name="spellcheckIndexDir">./mySpellCheckerDataIndex</str>
</lst>
</searchComponent>
build the dictionary using the get command
Question. Should i build the dictionlary only once and after that as new words are indexed the dictionary will be updated. Or i to do that manually over certain interval.
add the spellcheck component to the handler in my case as of now standard requets handler. I might also start adding some more dismax handlers depending on my requirement
<requestHandler name="standard" class="solr.SearchHandler" default="true">
<!-- default values for query parameters -->
<lst name="defaults">
<str name="echoParams">explicit</str>
<!--
<int name="rows">10</int>
<str name="fl">*</str>
<str name="version">2.1</str>
-->
</lst>
<arr name="last-components">
<str>spellcheck</str>
</arr>
</requestHandler>
run the query with parameter spell.check=true, and also specify against which dictionary you want to run spell check again in my case my spellcheck.dictionary parameter is mySpellChecker.
Please let know if this the best way since i have to start implementing it.
thanks
