Hi!

Some questions:
1) Is it possible to make Solr to use, for example, MySQL database,
or it only supports *.xml files as a database?
2) Is there a way to add data in the search database using some
online interface, or the only way is manually adding the data in the
*.xml files?
3) Is there any guide on how to implement Solr to the web-site?

you can use DataImportHandler to  index from MySql (or other databases)

you can generate the XMLs from a program  that can read from the data source
or
 use some of the solr clients  (java, python, ruby) to update  the index
using the provided APIs.

Hi Mihails,

I don't know about points 1 and 2 as I'm just starting with Solr but  
for point 3 you need to understand that Solr is just going to return  
xml for your queries so you can use any web language to parse the xml  
of the results. It might return other formats like json as  well,  
haven't figured this out yet but it's not intended to give you a full  
blown web page that's up to you to do it'll just give you the data.

setAllowLeadingWildcard

2008-06-09 Thread Dom Stockdale

Hello list,

I really need to setAllowLeadingWildcard to true and I'm wondering if  
you can advise me on the best way to do this. I am a newbie so forgive  
me if I'm being a dummy.


I've established that it's not set-able in the 1.2.0 version which  
seems to be quite old so I've  been looking through trunk to see  
what's what there and it seems now to be an option however the current  
version in trunk appears to be broken.


Doesn't anyone know a revision number from svn that might be working  
and where setAllowLeadingWildcard is set-able?


Is there another way I can set setAllowLeadingWildcard to true if I'm  
trying to do this the wrong way?


Thanks

DataImport

2008-06-09 Thread Mihails Agafonovs
Looked through the tutorial on data import, section "Full Import
Example".
1) Where is this dataimport.jar? There is no such file in the
extracted example-solr-home.jar.
2) "Use the solr folder inside example-data-config folder as your
solr home." What does this mean? Anyway, there is no folder
example-data-config.

1. Correct, there is no jar. You can use the solr.war file. If you really
need a jar, you'll need to use the SOLR-469.patch at
http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SOLR-469 and build solr from source
after applying that patch.
2. The jar contains a folder named "example-solr-home". Please check again.

Please let me know if you run into any problems.

Hello experts, 

How does Solr deal with numbers or phone numbers .. For example if you have 
1234 and 12 34 or 1 234... with spaces between the numbers ..
Or this is dealt by lucene ?

any documentations or tutorial on this ?

Re: Solr system and numbers

2008-06-09 Thread Otis Gospodnetic
Hi,
Solr/Lucene can treat phone numbers as strings.  If you want to clean them up 
and normalize them outside of Solr, you can do that and feed them into Solr as 
pure numbers.

How the phone numbers will be treated after you pump them into Solr depends on 
the analyzer you choose to use for this data.  If you don't need to search on 
subsets of phone numbers, then just don't tokenize them (i.e. use string type 
if the phone numbers contain any non-numeric characters, sint otherwise).

Re: Problems in solrJ trunk

2008-06-09 Thread Alexander Ramos Jardim
Well,

There is a simple case here. I tried to update SolrJ to use the last one and
got the application selected for test broke. So, I developed an alternative
interface for SolrServer and a wrapper to CommonsHttpSolrServer. Altered my
aoolication to use it and everything is working nice.

When you use good pratices like IoC or AOP it is preferred to program
interface oriented.

Sorry, but I find it really bad to go from an interface to a an abstract
class.

In my modest opinion, SolrServer should have both. Like SolrServer being an
interface and AbstractSolrServer implementing it.  CommonsHttpSolrServer
would extend AbstractSolrServer.

If the dev team really thinks interfaces are an ass, I think we will have
problems using Solr with other advanced OO features.

Re: DataImport

2008-06-09 Thread Shalin Shekhar Mangar
No, the steps are as follows:
1. Download the example-solr-home.jar from the DataImportHandler wiki page
2. Extract it. You'll find a folder named "example-solr-home" and a solr.war
file after extraction
3. Copy the solr.war to tomcat_home/webapps. You don't need any other solr
instance. This war is self-sufficient.
4. You need to set the example-solr-home/solr folder as the solr home
folder. For instructions on how to do that, look at
http://wiki.apache.org/solr/SolrTomcat

From the port number of the URL you are trying, it seems that you're using
the Jetty supplied with Solr instead of Tomcat.

Re: Problems in solrJ trunk

2008-06-09 Thread Otis Gospodnetic
Hi,

This interface vs. abstract class and maintenance/backwards compatibility 
question comes up pretty often.  I suggest using markmail.org and searching for 
things like:
interface abstract solr -jira
interface abstract lucene -jira

I think that will lead to some explanations without anyone having to go into 
this discussion again.

Thank you Lucas,

You caught my point nicely and even got a clearer idea of what to do.
Sorry Solr Dev Team, but I don't there is any reasonable excuse for making
such an argument interface vs abstract class as they are complements and
don't have the same role in OOP.

Anyways, Solr is a great app. I just don't think it has the better
programming practices, but that is just me.

Let's not turn that in a flame, or big discussion.

I actually had a single reusable version, but flattened it back out in
the code snippet for clarity.  But thanks for the tactful suggestion.
:-)  I didn't know that you could fetch the tokenizer chain directly
from the schema (how cool), which was what was originally desired --
the constructed tokenizer was just mirroring an existing field.  I
appreciate the tip, Hoss -- much cleaner!

XSL scripting

2008-06-09 Thread Lance Norskog
 This started out in the num-docs thread, but deserves its own. And a wiki
page.

There is a more complex and general way to get the number of documents in
the index. I run a query against solr and postprocess the output with an XSL
script.

Install this xsl script as home/conf/xslt/numfound.xsl.

http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform";>








Make sure 'curl' is installed, and add numfound.sh, a unix shell script.

SHARD=localhost:8080/solr
QUERY="$1"

LINK="http://$SHARD/select?indent=on&version=2.2&q=$QUERY&start=0&rows=0
&fl=*&wt=xslt&tr=numfound.xsl"
curl --silent "$LINK" -H "Content-Type:text" -X GET

Run it as

Re: solrj client in mven repository?

2008-06-09 Thread spencer.c

It is not in a central repo yet, though this has been requested.  See the
issue I filed here:
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SOLR-586

If you follow the outline there, you can build/install into your own repo
pretty easily.

html to text based on some sort of uniqueness metric

2008-06-09 Thread Cam Bazz
Hello,

I am indexing newspaper articles as an excercise in solr. When dealing with
newspaper articles in previous experiences I always tried to get the div or
the table that contains the actual news, using nekohtml traversing tru the
dom tree and getting the text from the div or table that contains the
article. When dealing with many newspapers, it is a hassle to custom code to
extract relevant information. There is usually a lot of garbage in the html.
>From categories to ads, and further more they change, so a static coding is
problematic.

I have been thinking if I could measure the frequency or uniqueness for each
node, and find the news automatically - but I have not come up with an
implementation.

Has anyone did/contemplated/used something similar? Maybe there is already a
way - using lucene, or even hadoop.

Best Regards,
-C.A.

Not sure.  Perhaps it can be done by training a language model and treating 
phone numbers as named entities?  Not sure if it would work.  But I know there 
are a few NLP people subscribed, maybe they'll have some good ideas.

If you do that, use MySQL own full text search capabilities and not Solr, as

I even think that such a decision should be based on the overall machine

Re: Num docs

2008-06-09 Thread Otis Gospodnetic
Exactly.  I think I mentioned this once before several months ago.  One can 
take various hardware specs (# cores, CPU speed, FSB, RAM, etc.), performance 
numbers, etc. and come up with a number for each server's overall capacity.

 
As a matter of fact, I think this would be useful to have right in Solr, 
primarily for use when allocating and sizing shards for Distributed Search.  
JIRA enhancement/feature issue?

searching only within allowed documents

2008-06-09 Thread Stephen Weiss

Hi,

I'm new to Solr (and Lucene) and I'm trying to work out just how I  
could fit this technology into my app (I'm moving over from using  
MySQL fulltext indexes).  Things are actually going really well - the  
facet functionality fits in just perfectly, and the basic full-text  
searching is working very well for me as well, especially considering  
that I'm trying to index several languages at once.  It's really much,  
much faster than MySQL.  Somehow, I thought that would be the hard  
part!  Unfortunately, I'm getting tripped up on something that seems  
far more complicated...


So, there are two kinds of searches you can do in this application.   
There's an "Advanced Search" and a basic "Text Search".  For the  
Advanced Search, users pick out one or more sets of documents which  
they are allowed to see, and some set of tags to filter by, and they  
get a list of documents.  This part is easy, I can do all of this with  
the functionality I picked up reading the docs and tutorials, and  
since my application is handling what sets of documents that my users  
can choose, Solr doesn't need to know anything about the permissions  
model.


The text search is where I'm running into trouble.  Right now, the  
application automatically filters the documents to search through with  
a join in MySQL.  In order to do this through Solr, I need to figure  
out a good way for Solr to know what sets of documents in which to  
search.


Here's what I have so far:

1)  Each document has a field folder_id, which contains one value,  
which is the ID of the folder to which the document belongs.  There  
are right now about 6000 different folders altogether.


2)  Each user is permitted to see documents from a particular subset  
of folders.  Some users can see only 100-200 folders, some users can  
see 4000-5000 folders (all depends on what they have subscribed to).


In the advanced search, in order to restrict the available documents,  
I use a filter query:  fq=folder_id:1 OR folder_id:2 etc...  In the  
advanced search, the user is only ever searching through a max of 80  
or 90 folders (and usually more like 1 or 2), so this seems quite  
workable.


However, in the plain text search, the user automatically searches  
through *all* of the folders to which they have subscribed.  This  
means, for (good!) users who have subscribed to a large (1000+) number  
of folders, the filter query would be quite long, and would exceed the  
default number of boolean parameters allowed.  Of course, I could just  
increase the limit, but the fact that a limit is there in the first  
place leads me to believe this is probably not the most scalable  
solution.


Now, I'm reading on this tutorial page for Lucene:  http://www.lucenetutorial.com/techniques/permission-filtering.html 
 that the best way to do this would involve some combination of  
HitCollector & FieldCache.  From what the author is saying, this  
sounds like exactly what I need.  Unfortunately, I am almost  
completely Java-illiterate, and on top of that, I'm  not really  
finding any explanation of:


a) What exactly I would do with the HitCollector & FieldCache objects  
that would help me achieve this goal - even just at the level of  
Lucene, there's no real explanation in the tutorial

or
b) Where exactly these classes fit in to Solr (if they do at all)


So far I have already written my own (tiny, tiny) Tokenizer and  
TokenizerFactory for correctly parsing the tags that come in from the  
database, and that works great, so I'm thinking, if there's something  
I can sub-class or modify somewhere to get this working, even with my  
meager Java knowledge I could do it...  But I have no clue even where  
to start with this.  Do I need my own custom version of  
SolrIndexSearcher, or SolrRequestHandler... or some other class I  
haven't even gotten to yet?


If it helps, I am using version 1.2, and trying to integrate this with  
a LAMP-based application.  I already have hooks set up to allow PHP to  
index documents, query solr, and parse responses.  Since everything  
else is already working so well, and it's just a matter of getting  
permissions working, I would really, really like to stick with Solr.   
Has anyone done anything like this or can point me in the right  
direction?  I can figure out the mechanics of getting the list of  
allowed folder_ids to Solr, all I really need to know is what kind of  
modifications I would need to make, where, to get Solr to limit the  
search to a particular subset of documents without using a gigantic  
filter query.


Many thanks for any advice.  My apologies if this has been asked a  
million times before, I am new to the list however I did read and  
search through the archives and didn't really find anything on this  
subject.


Best regards,
Steve

2) Take a look at DataImportHandler for indexing data at
