Hi,
what you want to do is not that difficult, you can use json, eg.
try:
conn = urllib.urlopen(url, params)
page = conn.read()
rsp = simplejson.loads(page)
conn.close()
return rsp
except Exception, e:
log.error(str(e))
log.error(page)
raise e
but this way you are initiating connection each time, which is
expensive - it would be better to pool the connections
but as you can see, you can get json or xml either way
another option is to use solrpy
import solr
import urllib
# create a connection to a solr server
s = solr.SolrConnection('http://localhost:8984/solr')
s.select = solr.SearchHandler(s, '/invenio')
def search(query, kwargs=None, fields=['id'], qt='invenio'):
# do a remote search in solr
url_params = urllib.urlencode([(k, v) for k,v in kwargs.items() if
k not in ['_', 'req']])
if 'rg' in kwargs and kwargs['rg']:
rows = min(kwargs['rg'], 100) #inv maximum limit is 100
else:
rows = 25
response = s.query(query, fields=fields, rows=rows, qt=qt,
inv_params=url_params)
num_found = response.numFound
q_time = response.header['QTime']
#.... more and return
