CouchDB-Lucene get distinct rows from search

Question

I have duplicated rows in my Lucene's index and I whant to retreive only distinct datas with the search.

I think that I can't build the index without the duplicated datas because they are not stored in the same CouchDB table (JSON document). But maybe I am missing something, and it's possible to test whether one element is already indexed or not before returning it from the index function.
If not, is it possible to retreive only distinct values from an index which contains duplicated datas?

Regards, Mickaël

CouchDB-Lucene does not currently support "DISTINCT" or deduplication.

So, I guess that my only option is to implement the distinct client side and hope that I have less ducplicated data than the limit parameter of my query. Thanks for all of your answers! – Mickael Zehren May 15 '13 at 11:20
