I would like to perform searches in Solr using queries I extracted from Fast ESP . The queries are written in FQL (fast query language) format and I want to convert them to Solr query syntax . Is there any way to preform a search like this in Solr? Maybe a tool available? Could not find anything on the web.
I doubt there's a tool that would perform a simple conversion: you would need to write a query parser and cope with any FQL that doesn't directly map to Lucene syntax. We've been doing a similar job with to help clients with large numbers of stored queries in dtSearch and Verity syntaxes.
At Lucene Revolution I mentioned that we were interested in converting other query syntaxes and FQL would certainly be one to consider - especially as my co-presenter and colleague Alan Woodward spent many years working with FAST ESP. Our presentation is here if you want to find out more:
