Absolutely not ideal. However, adding the ability to more easily mutate the schema will come with a cost. Adding a field that wasn't there before and you only want it indexed for newly written objects, easy. Adding a field and you want to re-index your objects, little tricker. Removing a field that has hundreds, thousands, millions, etc of matching Solr documents; better be careful. Changing the field type or analysis chain; now you are asking for serious trouble.
I still plan to add the feature but mutating a schema must be done with caution. I will probably just end up writing a bunch of scary documentation to warn of the pitfalls :) -Z On Fri, Nov 8, 2013 at 6:56 PM, Jeremiah Peschka <jeremiah.pesc...@gmail.com > wrote: > Yeah, I ran into some difficulties while trying to modify schema.
