Phil John commented on SOLR-5027:
---------------------------------
The one thing this doesn't seem to do, which the current field collapsing
solution does, is say how many items there are in each group - which is useful
if you want to display the top result, but also have a link saying "X other
available". Our use case is collapsing down multiple manifestations of a
bibliographic work (i.e. multiple editions of the same work), so with the
grouping feature we get a count back of the size of the group and can go "5
other editions also available" and then link to a search on the key we
collapsed by.
Is this planned, or will that come in the more generic aggregation support
planned for 5.0?

> This ticket introduces the *CollapsingQParserPlugin*
> The *CollapsingQParserPlugin* is a PostFilter that performs field collapsing.
> This is a high performance alternative to standard Solr field collapsing
> (with *ngroups*) when the number of distinct groups in the result set is high.
> For example in one performance test, a search with 10 million full results
> and 1 million collapsed groups:
> Standard grouping with ngroups : 17 seconds.
> CollapsingQParserPlugin: 300 milli-seconds.
> Sample syntax:
> Collapse based on the highest scoring document:
> {code}
> fq=(!collapse field=<field_name>}
> {code}
> Collapse based on the min value of a numeric field:
> {code}
> fq={!collapse field=<field_name> min=<field_name>}
> {code}
> Collapse based on the max value of a numeric field:
> {code}
> fq={!collapse field=<field_name> max=<field_name>}
> {code}
> Collapse with a null policy:
> {code}
> fq={!collapse field=<field_name> nullPolicy=<null_policy>}
> {code}
> There are three null policies:
> ignore : removes docs with a null value in the collapse field (default).
> expand : treats each doc with a null value in the collapse field as a
> separate group.
> collapse : collapses all docs with a null value into a single group using
> either highest score, or min/max.
> The CollapsingQParserPlugin also fully supports the QueryElevationComponent
> *Note:* The July 16 patch also includes and ExpandComponent that expands the
> collapsed groups for the current search result page. This functionality will
> be moved to it's own ticket.
