Noble Paul commented on SOLR-853:
---------------------------------
bq.Once you decide you want a modular design, why limit it to storing in Lucene?
It is possible , but DIH is designed to create target documents in a
denormalized form (a single table) . This is quite unique to Lucene.
While a few users might find it useful, it can't be generalized. The moment it
is made possible , there may be requests for enhancements specific to DB . I do
not wish to get into the domain of Kettle or Talend.
But I shall leave the core generic enough to be used by others
> Make DIH API friendly

> DIH currently can only be run inside Solr. But the core of DIH is quite
> independent of Solr. There are only a few points where it requires Solr core
> classes.They can be isolated out and we have an API in hand. If we limit the
> dependency down to common util then DIH can be used by
> * Lucene users directly
> * Run DIH remotely with SolrJ
> * By any other tools using Lucene as their underlying datastore
