Solr document query hits

Question

I'm trying to find out, if solr have some kind of built-in feature for sorting on document query hits.

Lets say I have a simple document

<fields>
  <field name="Id" type="string" indexed="true" stored="true" required="true"/>
  <field name="_version_" type="long" indexed="true" stored="true"/>
  <field name="Tag" type="string" indexed="true" stored="true"/>
</fields>

I then have a document where Tag has the value "programming"

When a user is writing "pro" in a search field, I wish to show the tags with prefix "pro" however I wish to sort by query hits, meaning the document which is shown the most.

Example: Proactive Problem Programming Progress

The programming is the most hit value, however It's not the document shown first.

Does solr have a feature already I can use to archive this? Or do I have to implement it myself?

Thank you in advance.

Answer 1

I'm not 100% sure about this but I've found this post suggesting that Solr does not have an build-in feature for measuring popularity by how many times a document has been returned.

I guess you have to implement it yourself or use one of the existing frameworks, linked in the post I referenced.
