Hi,
I have some query building and result processing code, which is currently running as
"normal" Solr client outside of Solr. I think it would make a lot of sense to
move parts of this code into a custom SearchHandler or SearchComponent. Because I'm not a
big fan of the Java language, I would like to use Groovy.
Searching the web I got the impression that "Solr + alternative JVM languages"
is not a very common topic. So before starting my project, I would like to know: Is there
a well known good reason not to use Groovy (or Clojure, Scala, ...) for implementing
custom Solr code?
kind regards,
Achim
Check out Paul Nelson's work, presented at Lucene Revolution 2013:

He reported success using Groovy embedded in Solr to generate queries
