Does the website have a middleware? As in, is it static website or something served dynamically from PHP, Ruby, Java, etc? If the later, then you do the same thing blacklight does: you run your Solr server and your middleware talks to it over HTTP connection. Then, you have to figure out how to get data into Solr, so you need to index the content from the database/files/etc.
If your website is fully static, then you still need some sort of middleware for search, as it is not Safe exposing Solr directly to users. Regards, Alex.
