Anyone tried out the Mapper stuff besides Jamie and I? It's become
my favorite way to push data into Solr.
I have tried the xpath_mapper and it works great. Faster then I
thought.
That's surely because it uses libxml instead of the, *cough*
pathetic, REXML library.
Glad to hear at least someone outside of my office has used it :)
I
am toying with the idea of making commit limit i.e. make a solr
commit after
x number of entries.
Solr has an auto-commit feature that will do exactly this for you.
Look for "autocommit" here: <http://wiki.apache.org/solr/SolrConfigXml>
I like to make an atom mapper any advice?
Seems like it could build on top of the xpath_mapper, no? What type
of object would you be passing to the mapper? A Mapper only requires
that an object implement the #[] method for looking up values. The
xpath_mapper overrides that lookup mechanism to instead use an XPath
on the passed in DOM object. With knowledge of the type of object
you'll be mapping, creating a mapper shouldn't be too difficult.
