Description

From J.J. Larrea on SOLR-104

2. What would make this even more powerful would be the ability to "subclass" (meaning refine and/or extend) request handler configs: If the requestHandler element allowed an attribute extends="<another-requesthandler-name>" and chained the SolrParams, then one could do something like:

<requestHandler name="search/products/all" class="solr.DisMaxRequestHandler" >
<lst name="defaults">
<float name="tie">0.01</float>
<str name="qf">
text^0.5 features^1.0 name^1.2 sku^1.5 id^10.0 manu^1.1 cat^1.4
</str>
... much more, per the "dismax" example in the sample solrconfig.xml ...
</requestHandler>

... and replacing the "partitioned" example ...
<requestHandler name="search/products/instock" extends="search/products/all" >
<lst name="appends">
<str name="fq">inStock:true</str>
</lst>
</requestHandler>
