Custom Sitecore index configuration for Solr implementation

I have a custom index in Sitecore that I created originally to use Lucene. For the sake of this question let's call that index "News". I am converting all Lucene indexes to Solr. There is a separate Solr core for each sitecore index including the News index. All the indexes are rebuilding, and I am seeing documents in Solr for the default OOTB Sitecore indexes, but no documents are being added to the News Core in Solr. The schema that I'm using for the News core was generated via Sitecore's schema generation tool in the control panel. Does this schema need to be modified to reflect the fields that I've specified in the Sitecore Index configuration file?

<sitecore>
 <contentSearch>
  <configuration type="Sitecore.ContentSearch.ContentSearchConfiguration, Sitecore.ContentSearch">
    <indexes hint="list:AddIndex">
      <index id="News" type="Sitecore.ContentSearch.SolrProvider.SolrSearchIndex, Sitecore.ContentSearch.SolrProvider">
        <param desc="name">$(id)</param>
        <param desc="folder">$(id)</param>

        <!-- This initializes index property store. Id has to be set to the index id -->
        <param desc="propertyStore" ref="contentSearch/indexConfigurations/databasePropertyStore" param1="$(id)" />

        <configuration ref="contentSearch/indexConfigurations/defaultSolrIndexConfiguration">

          <documentOptions ref="contentSearch/indexConfigurations/defaultSolrIndexConfiguration/documentOptions">

            <indexAllFields>true</indexAllFields>

            <!-- Included templates -->
            <include hint="list:AddIncludedTemplate">
              <template1>{3139428E-AF1E-4678-916F-08B2A44453E7}</template1>

A few things to change:

  • rename your index to "news" (I had some issues when using capitals in index names)
  • move the indexAllFields outside the documentOptions (it has to be under configuration with Solr - so on the same level as the documentOptions)
  • add ref="contentSearch/indexConfigurations/defaultSolrIndexConfiguration/fieldMap to your fieldMap element.
  • redo your fieldMap - you are using a Lucene fieldMap here. You can check the default Solr config for an example on how to do this with Solr - it would look more like <field fieldName="article" returnType="string" /> and so on..
  • redo your fieldTypes as that is also still referring to Lucene

Best thing to do is put the default Solr configuration next to your custom one to have an example on how to set all elements.
