I have created one in a sample application (i.e. it works, but I have not used it in any heavy load or production sense) using the SpellChecker package from the Lucene 2.1 branch. Solr provides an excellent foundation for extension, so it is not too difficult to get going, but it does take some java coding. Another project at my company has bumped the Solr-related one at least 6 months, so I have not been able to polish off my spell checker. As fast as the Solr community is moving, however, I would be surprised if no other solution showed up before then.

Hello everyone, Has anybody successfully implemented a Lucene spellchecker within Solr? If so, could you give details on how one would achieve this? If not, is it planned to make it as standard within Solr? Its a feature almost every Solr application would want to use, so I think it would be a nice idea. Sadly, I'm no Java developer, so I fear I won't be the one coding that :( Thanks, -- Michael Imbeault CHUL Research Center (CHUQ) 2705 boul.
