DSL to Legacy Parameters

Query pipeline stage configuration specifications

Lucidworks Search Domain Specific Language (DSL) provides expected search results as a JSON response in a way that reduces search query complexity for the user. Not all query pipeline stages support DSL. The DSL to Legacy Parameters query pipeline stage allows you to convert your DSL requests to the legacy (Solr) format.

If you add an incompatible stage while in DSL mode, Lucidworks Search flags the stage:

The DSL to Legacy Parameters stage extends DSL support to incompatible stages. Click Add a Stage and select the DSL to Legacy Parameters stage. This stage converts the DSL request to legacy parameters for subsequent stages, so it can be processed by the incompatible stage.

Important

The DSL to Legacy Parameters stage must come before incompatible stages for the conversion to succeed.

See the DSL documentation for more details on what you can do with DSL.
