resource.mimetype is missing from Solr index

[pkoskinen]

From resource fields only description, url and format are added to index. Thus the field mimetype is missing from it but our setup should use it (facet for mimetype), it is only in data_dict. We tried to avoid this problem by adding the mimetype to the format field, but it can't be done as this seems to morph the mimetype, eg. application/pdf -> PDF. For harvested data especially, we can not assume that we have a right to modify the metadata.

Adding mimetype solely to index is a small addition in ckan.lib.search.index as far as I know, but it would be preferred if you could actually configure the fields you want to be indexed.

[kindly]

We are looking at adding many new resource related fields to the SOLR index. If you need todo it currently you can use the before_search method in the IPackage controller documented here.
http://docs.ckan.org/en/latest/extensions/plugin-interfaces.html#ckan.plugins.interfaces.IPackageController.before_search
Possibly for this case you may need to change your solr schema. I am closing this ticket as this hopefully will be covered by #1495
