I had the very same article in mind - how would it be simpler in Solr than in Lucene? A spellchecker is pretty much standard in every major
I meant it would be a simpler implementation in Solr because you don't have to deal with java or any Lucene API's. You just create a document for each "correct" word. For example the word "lettuce" would have a document: <doc> <field name="word">lettuce</field> <field name="start3">let</field> <field name="gram3">let ett ttu tuc uce</field> <field name="end3">uce</field> <field name="start4">lett</field> <field name="gram4">lett ettu ttuc tuce</field> <field name="end4">tuce</field> </doc> Then you query Solr using the same syntax they describe in the article. Anyway I haven't done this or tested it, but when reading that article I thought it would be much easier to implement using Solr, at least for me since I already have a database of correct words in Solr.
