DESCRIPTION:

DelSolr is a light weight ruby wrapper for solr. It’s intention is to expose the full power of solr queries while keeping the interface as ruby-esque as possible.

Installation

Can be installed as a gem which is hosted on gemcutter.org

gem install delsolr

or as a plugin…

ruby script/plugin install git://github.com/avvo/delsolr.git

PROBLEMS:

  • Not threadsafe yet

SYNOPSIS:

See delsolr.rubyforge.org for more info

Example:

c = DelSolr::Client.new(:server => 'solr1', :port => 8983)
rsp = c.query('dismax', :query => 'mp3 player',
                        :filters => {:cost => (50..100), :localparams => {:tag => 'cost_filter'}},
                        :facets => [{:field => 'brand', :limit => 10},
                                    {:query => {:onsale => true, :brand => 'Apple'},
                                     :localparams => {:key => 'cheap_apple', :ex => 'cost_filter'}}])

# output total matches
puts rsp.total

# output each id with score
rsp.docs.each { |doc| puts "#{doc[:id]} - #{doc[:score]}" }

# output each value for a facet
rsp.facet_field_values('brand').each do |brand|
  puts "#{brand}: #{rsp.facet_field_count('brand', brand}"
end

# output a query facet
puts "Cheap Apple stuff: #{rsp.facet_query_count_by_key('cheap_apple')}"

# adding things
doc = DelSolr::Document.new
doc.add_field('id', 'ABC-123')
doc.add_field('name', '8 Gig Shuffle')
doc.add_field('description', 'A crazy-tiny MP3 player')
c.update!(doc) # posts new document to solr
c.commit! # posts a commit to solr

rsp = c.query('dismax', :query => 'shuffle mp3 player')
puts rsp.ids[0]

# using local params for filters / facets Use :localparams => {} syntax to add local params to filters and facets

REQUIREMENTS:

You need Solr(1.4 or higher) installed somewhere so you can query it ;)

INSTALL:

sudo gem install delsolr

TODO:

* implement delete_by_query
* make thread safe
  * it would be nice to be able to have things like commit/optimize be ran in threads on timers periodically
  * right now a few things need to be locked
    * connection
    * pending_documents array
