Usage of faceting in embedded entities in hibernate search 5

Primary LanguageJava

Faceting with Hibernate Search 5

Two entities: Parent & Child with a simple one-to-many relationship.

The Child is the @Indexed entity, the Parent is marked as @IndexedEmbedded.

I want to query the children and group by their parents.

Parent.id is marked with @Facet, but when the query runs it gives an error:

org.hibernate.search.exception.SearchException: HSEARCH000268: Facet request 'facetRequest' tries to facet on  field 'parent.id' which either does not exist or is not configured for faceting (via @Facet). Check your configuration.

I would like to know how the @Facet should be set up to make this work, I have not seen any examples of faceting on an embedded entity.

Database setup (MySQL)

create database facetdb;
create user 'hello'@'localhost';
grant all privileges on facetdb.* to 'hello'@'localhost' identified by 'hello';
