The benefit to having a <foreach> solution (now I'm beginning to
speak like a Rubyist, eh? Ever toyed with Rake, Peter?) is that you
can handle errors yourself.
I never really expected the pipeline to be XML files -> XSLT *files* -
> HTTP POST -> Solr.
The *files* part here is key. Can't ya get your Cocoon-skinned cap
on and roll a pipeline that does it all on the fly with badass
compiled style sheet performance, IoC configurable, da works. Right
Bess? I'd be happy to collaborate with Bess to wire in a Cocoon
kinda Ant task wrapper if the world would be a better place with it.

Nah, how likely is that? I'll report back.

Ok, we have it on good authority that <foreach> is the way to go
for Ant
-> POST -> Solr.

cool, thanks. it only posts a single file, it looks like, but i
suppose the <foreach> ant-contrib task would be the way to go to
post
a directory full of .xml files? or is there now something in ant
that can do that iteration that i'm unaware of?
well, someone could add multifile post, but foreach makes mores sense
woefully ignorant of the latest stuff in ant,

yes, there is an antlib (not released, you need to build it

Steve,
Know of any HTTP POST tasks that could take a directory .xml files
and post them to Solr? We do it with curl like this, with Solr's
post.sh:
FILES=$*
URL=http://localhost:8983/solr/update
for f in $FILES; do
echo Posting file $f to $URL
curl $URL --data-binary @$f -H 'Content-type:text/xml;
charset=utf-8'
echo
done
#send the commit command to make sure all the changes are
flushed
and visible
curl $URL --data-binary '<commit/>'
But something more Ant-centric would be tasty.
Thanks,
Erik

Is there an Ant task out there somewhere that can POST
bunches of
files
to Solr, doing what the post.sh script does but with filesets?
I've found the http post task
(http://antelope.tigris.org/nonav/docs/manual/bk03ch17.html),
but it
just posts name-value pairs, not files; and Slide's set of
webdav
client
tasks
(http://gulus.usherbrooke.ca/pub/appl/apache/jakarta/slide/
binaries/
jaka
rta-slide-ant-webdav-bin-2.1.zip) has PUT and GET but not
POST. It
shouldn't be hard to adapt one of these, but something pre-
existing
would be better.
