Hi ! Basically it allows you to interact with solr with solr:// references the same way you would do it through http : http://wiki.apache.org/solr/SolrRequestHandler
It can be seen as a way to deploy solr as a Restlet application instead of in a servlet container. I have uploaded the SolrClientHelper.java on http://restlet.tigris.org/issues/show_bug.cgi?id=697. About creating an extension, I still struggle a bit on how define dependencies to 3rd party jars. Is there a tool to create all the boilerplate in librairies/ directory from this maven dependency ? <dependency> <groupId>org.apache.solr</groupId> <artifactId>solr-core</artifactId> <version>1.3.0</version> </dependency> Regards, Rémi On Sun, Dec 28, 2008 at 13:17, Jerome Louvel <[email protected]>wrote: > Hi all, > > Providing Lucene-based search/indexing features sounds like a generic and > very useful feature. > > If the best way to facilitate this integration in Restlet is to leverage > Solr, then we should definitely consider a new Restlet extension.
