Solr: how to add a new field to all docs

I need to add a new field to each document in a Solr index.

This new field does not need to be searchable. It is just needed to be stored in Solr and returned in the search results.

The value of the new field can be calculated based on the id field (and other info which is not present in the solr index.)

What is the fastest, most simple way to achieve this goal?

Try the Solr Schema API:

curl http://localhost:8983/solr/yourcollection/schema -X POST -H 'Content-type:application/json' --data-binary '{
    "add-field" : {
    "name":"myfield",
    "type":"string",
    "stored":true
    }
}'

Filling the value of this field for the existing documents can be done AFAIK only with a reindex operation.
