Lance Norskog commented on SOLR-1354:
-------------------------------------
This experiment has two aims:
1) It should be possible to send in an HTTP request that creates an RSS2.0 feed
for any Solr index.
2) The rss2.xsl script should give a handy starting point for other XSL
scripts, giving an easily altered style for XSL's weirdly limited tools.
Parameters are name 'tr.param='. This convention made sense as 'tr=' gives the
name of the XSL script.
There a few holes in the RSS 2.0 implementation. They are listed in the header
text of rss2.xsl. The RSS2.0 standard is from
http://cyber.law.harvard.edu/rss/rss.html by Dave Winer. (Yeah, yeah.) An ATOM
1.0 version is left as an exercise for the unwary.

> Key: SOLR-1354
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SOLR-1354
> Project: Solr
> Issue Type: New Feature
> Components: search
> Environment: Any JDK from 1.5 onward. Any OS. Uses standard XSLTC
> 'compiled'-only version of Apache Xalan distributed with the JRE.
> Reporter: Lance Norskog
> Priority: Minor
> Attachments: rss2.patch
>
>
> It is not possible to create a standard web application with the Solr
> distribution without coding in XSL, Ruby, HTML/Javascript etc.
> This patch is an experiment that allows you to configure an RSS 2.0 feed
> through HTTP parameters. To do this, it supplies:
> 1) a change to XSLTWriter.java to pass an HTTP parameter named 'tr.name'
> through as an XSL parameter called 'name'. The XSL script must then declare
> 'name' as a global parameter.
> 2) example/solr/conf/xslt/rss2.xsl - a mostly complete implementation of RSS
> 2.0.
> 3) a sample <requestHandler> in example/solr/conf/solrconfig.xml which
> configures solr/rss2 as an RSS feed for the sample electronics store in
> example/solr. This <requestHandler> supplies all parameters for the RSS feed.
