How to configure SOLR queries in the conf files

My requirement is simple.

I need to search with the keyword similar to SQL LIKE.

Now the search shows results for "words" rather than checking partial characters.

Ex:-

I found many query suggestions for SOLR. But I need to find the exact mechanism to put that on conf xml files.

Thanks in advance.

Are you building auto-complete?

If so, use Suggester. It's part of Solr, and it does what you're talking about extremely efficiently using either a dictionary file, or a field in your index you've designated.

The quick and dirty solution is to use wildcard in your search query using an asterisk (*). For example: test*

The more proper solution would be to use stemming to remove common word endings when you index and query the data. In the default schema, the text_en_splitting field type would do this for you. Just define your field as text_en_splitting.
