I have queries that I am running against out solr index that sometimes have very long query parameters, I get errors when i run these queries, which i assume are do to the limit of a GET query parameters.
Here is the method I use to query (JSON), this is to show I am using the Http Extensions (the client i use is a thin wrapper for HttpClient) not an end to end solution. 90% of the queries run fine, it is just when the params are large i get the 500 error from solr. I have read somewhere you can use POSt's when doing the select command but have not found examples of how to do it. Any help would be fantastic!
public string GetJson(HttpQueryString qs)
{
using (var client = new DAC.US.Web.XmlHttpServiceClient(this.Uri))
{
client.Client.DefaultHeaders.Authorization = new Microsoft.Http.Headers.Credential("Basic", DAC.US.Encryption.Hash.WebServiceCredintials);
qs.Add("wt", "json");
if (!String.IsNullOrEmpty(this.Version))
qs.Add("version", this.Version);
using (var response = client.Get(new Uri(@"select/", UriKind.Relative), qs))
{
return response.Content.ReadAsString();
}
}
}
