YaCy supports now the storage to remote solr indexes.
More federated storage (and search) methods may follow.
The remote index scheme is the same as produced by the SolrCell; see
http://wiki.apache.org/solr/ExtractingRequestHandler
Because this default scheme is used, the default example scheme can be used as solr configuration
This is also the same scheme that solr uses if documents are imported with apache tika.
federated solr storage is switched off by default.
To use this, do the following:
- set federated.service.solr.indexing.enabled = true
- download solr from http://www.apache.org/dyn/closer.cgi/lucene/solr/
- extract the solr (3.1) package, 'cd example' and start solr with 'java -jar start.jar'
- start yacy and then start a crawler. The crawler will fill both, YaCy and solr indexes.
- to check whats in solr after indexing, open http://localhost:8983/solr/admin/
Until now it is not possible to use the solr index to search with YaCy in that solr index.
This functionality is now available for two reasons:
1) to compare the functionality of Solr and YaCy and to compare the search speed
2) to use YaCy as a search appliance for people who need a crawler or other source harvesting methods
that YaCy provides (like dublin core reading, wikimedia dump reading, rss feed reader etc) if people still
want to use solr instead of YaCy.
