Re: [VuFind-General] Delete selected records...

[Robert H. <rh...@vi...>]

If you can construct a query that matches all of the records that you 
want to delete, and none of the records you don't want to delete, it is 
easy.

create a file containing the following:

<delete><query>/query that matches the records to delete///</query></delete>

and then post that file to your Solr.   which /can/ be done via curl, 
(somehow)  but I usually use the standalone java utility program  post.jar

Alternately if you cannot create a query that matches all of the records 
you want to delete, without also matching some records you don't want to 
delete

you can create a file like the following listing each of the record ids 
you want to delete.

<delete>
<id>uva-lib:602113</id>
<id>uva-lib:617009</id>
<id>uva-lib:601005</id>
</delete>

and post that to your solr instance.
