As a SITE BUILDER I want a simple way to replace a given string in a field to be indexed with another string. For example, I have two different content types, landing_page and landing_page_legacy, which for the purposes of search I want to treat as one type. The simplest way for me to achieve this is to have occurrences of 'landing_page_legacy' type replaced with 'landing_page' before they are saved to the type field in the search index. Then all my facets and filters see only one content type.
Add a simple regex processor, which performs replacements on text fields before indexing, based on the one in search_api_solr → , to this module.

I should not have created an issue fork for this simple change. Ignore it unless things get complicated.
Here's a simple reworking of the above mentioned plugin from Search API Solr. I've focused on my indexing use case and dropped option to preserve what gets replaced and altering of queries as it is not necessary for my use case.
