It was actually very easy. I followed the tutorial at http://wiki.apache.org/solr/DataImportHandler . The only thing I forgot was that I had to define the fields that I have in data-config.xml also in solrconfig.xml. Another issue I'm having with the wiki article is that it doesn't mention where you need to store a custom transformer file. I'm no Java wiz and I have no clue.
I have also a lot of multiValued fields, but I'm not sure if I can write a custom transformer that can turn a string into a multivalued field. I have a string that I want to split and store in an array. All the values of this array need to be stored in a multivalued field. Is this possible? I have now expanded my data-config file with more records and I will be doing some more extensive testing in the near future. But I'm happy so far.
