Hey all, I'm planning on using solr for a web project that I'm doing, and I was wondering if anyone had experience with using Solr or communicating with another external xml api? I've got a few questions.
1. What is the most straightforward way to POST to an external url? I'm going to be sending Solr server XML commands to index and commit data for search within my app, and I've seen people discuss Scala's Dispatch library, but I'm not exactly sure what its strengths are or if I should use it over apache http library or curl. 2. Would it be safe to say that this use case (sending POSTs to an external URL asynchronously) is a good thing for Lift's actors to handle? I'm very green to the concept of actors, so I'm trying to find when it's best to use them. 3. I'm planning on doing a monthly rebuild of the index (or possibly some other timespan tbd), and I've read that Quartz is good for scheduling. Is there documentation I can read for information on how to integrate this Java library (or any java library for that matter) into my lift app and use it? Thanks!
