How do Solrj pojo Java types map to Solr types?

I'm new to Solr, and I'm trying to use Solrj pojo's to create my documents.

Is there a mapping of Solr types to Java I should adhere to in my pojo's? is everything in the pojo a String? is there a magical mapping from Java basic types to Solr and it's transparent?

This seems like a basic question but I can't find an answer.

TIA.

Solution

  • The answer to this question appears to be that for Solrj beans (using @Field) the Java type of the field is a Java OBJECT that corresponds to the solr.*Field type.

    For instance solr.BoolField maps to java.lang.Boolean.

    Same follows for Long, Integer, Float, ...

    I hope this helps the next poor soul :-)
