Highlights from Solr & Alternative Fields for display

Alternative Fields

alternative_field' can be added to result_display so that it is used if the specified 'field' does not exist.

e.g. assume we are displaying the 'title' of the results but for those results with no title, we would like to display the file name instead:

result_display: [
                    [
                        {
                            "pre": "<h4>",
                            "field": "title",
                            "alternative_field": "file_name",
                            "post": "</h4>"
                        }
                    ]
                ]

Highlightings from Solr

First, you should specify the following facetview options:

{
    solr_doc_id: "id",
    highlight_fields: ["text"],            // you can specify more than one
    highlight_pre: "<mark>",
    highlight_post: "</mark>"
}

Then, you can display the highlightings by adding them to result_display. Check out this example:

result_display: [
                    [
                        {
                            pre: "<a target='_blank' href='",
                            field: "url",
                            post: "'>"

                        },
                        {
                            pre: "<h4>",
                            field: "title",
                            post: "</h4></a>"
                        },
                    ],
                    [
                        {
                            pre: "<span class='text_highlightings'>",
                            highlight_field: "text",
                            post: "</span>"
                        }
                    ]
                ]
