Vincent -

Flare is currently not what I'd consider production ready, but it all depends on your needs. It is a simple plugin that ties Solr to RoR for faceted browsing, full-text search, and Ajax suggest. It's what I'd call a hack / proof-of-concept.

There isn't any additional documentation about it. But there isn't much code that comprises it either, so it's quite approachable, though a bit ugly in parts. You'll find the plugin here:

<http://svn.apache.org/viewvc/lucene/solr/trunk/client/ruby/flare/ vendor/plugins/flare/>

A couple of directories up is an actual Rails application using that plugin.

The Blacklight team has been working on a more sophisticated version of Flare. You can browse around their repository to track down what they've done: http://blacklight.rubyforge.org

Hello,

I'm looking for informations about this plugin (Flare).

Is it a final plugin? Can we use it on final production application?
Have you some documentation / tutorial about it? I don't find anything !

I would be grateful to your help that you bring to me.
