Hello, All the Solr documents talk about not running Solr directly to the cloud. But I see people keep asking for a thin secure layer in front of Solr they can talk from JavaScript to, perhaps with some basic extension options.
Has anybody actually written one? Open source or in a community part of larger project? I would love to be able to point people at something. Is there something particularly difficult about writing one? Does anybody has a story of aborted attempt or mid-point reversal? I would like to know. Regards, Alex. P.s. Personal context: I am thinking of doing a series of lightweight examples of how to use Solr. Like I did for a book, but with a bit more depth and something that can actually be exposed to the live web with live data. I don't want to reinvent the wheel of the thin Solr middleware. P.p.s. Though I keep thinking that Dart could make an interesting option for the middleware as it could have the same codebase on the server and in the client. Like NodeJS, but with saner syntax.....
