New Container: Solr

Opened this issue · 1 comments

What is the new container you'd like to have?

Apache Solr

Why not just use a generic container for this?

Similar to OpenSearch and Elasticsearch, there's a somewhat complicated setup and wait strategy that needs to be used. This is handled already in the Java implementation.

Other references:

Solr is already supported in the Java testcontainers library: https://java.testcontainers.org/modules/solr/

This enhancement would bring the same support to Python, allowing tests to be written with Pysolr and Testcontainers with minimal setup.

I'd be happy to have a go at contributing this myself
