I created solr data in a lower format with a parent relationship of descendants. If one insurance account has car insurance for several people. One person can have several vehicles, such as a car, bicycle, etc. I took on the role of parent and vehicle as a child document.
<insurance_accounts> <person> <firstname>John</firstname> <lastname>Jones</lastname> ...other details... <cars> <car> <make>honda</make> <model>accord</model> </car> <car> <make>Nissan</make> <model>Maxima</model> </car> </cars> <bikes> <bike> <make>yamaha</make> <model>passion</model> </bike> <bike> <make>Peugeot</make> <model>Vivacity</model> </bike> </bikes> </person> <person> ... </person> </insurance_accounts>
In the java code below, I used solrj 4.9 to create documents and run a search query in SOLR. I processed QueryResponse to show the desired result, and also gave the solr request url.
You can get help from this piece of code and let me know if it works or not.
