how to use facet in pysolr

Question

I have successful built a python search app with pysolr. So far I have used two fields: id and title. now i want to push two different versions of titles; the original and the title after removing the stopwords. any ideas? the following code works:

def BuildSolrIndex(solr, trandata):
    tmp = []
    for i, dat in enumerate(trandata):
        if all(d is not None and len(d) > 0 for d in dat):
            d = {}
            d["id"] = dat[0]
            d["title"] = dat[1]
            tmp.append(d)
    solr.add(tmp)
    solr.optimize()
    return solr

but this one does not:

def BuildSolrIndex(solr, trandata):
    tmp = []
    for i, dat in enumerate(trandata):
        if all(d is not None and len(d) > 0 for d in dat):
            d = {}
            d["id"] = dat[0]
            d["title_org"] = dat[1]
            d["title_new"] = CleanUpTitle(dat[1])
            tmp.append(d)
    solr.add(tmp)
    solr.optimize()
    return solr

Any ideas?

EDIT:

bellow is the exception:

Traceback (most recent call last):

    solr = BuildSolrIndex(solr, trandata)

This looks like an issue with your Solr schema.xml, as the exception indicates that "title_new" is not recognized as a valid field. This answer may be of assistance to you: https://stackoverflow.com/a/14400137/1675729

Check to make sure your schema.xml contains a "title_new" field, and that you've restarted the Solr services if necessary. If this doesn't solve your problem, come on back!
