Thanks for the suggestion, but I just spent some time looking at
SolarBeam, and found that the example code did not work.
A little time debugging it confirmed that it internally constructed a
valid query url string which when pasted into a browser resulted in
multiple found documents, but SolarBeam was getting 0 documents found.
Since the last release was a year ago, it is quite possible that
something changed to break it (I'm using SOLR 4.4, was the author
working with the 3.x series?). I also noticed that you (Marcus R)
started a fork.
Since I've been able to work-around the issues with Apache::Solr I'm
starting my project with it.
We have been using SolarBeam - https://github.com/judofyr/solarbeam
It uses Mojo::UserAgent, and will allow parallel requests, even if you
use catalyst. We found this very useful when writing search intensive
apps.

My research hasn't turned up a lot in terms of discussion and how
tos for either Solr and Perl or Solr and Catalyst. There are two
CPAN modules which I've been experimenting with, WebService::Solr
and Apache::Solr.
WebService::Solr only implements the LWP agent part of working
with Solr, which still leaves one to extract the actual JSON what
LWP gives you, plus it has fatal wide-character issues that "use
utf8::all" isn't able to fix, and also does not support xml and
csv (other formats solr can provide). Apache::Solr is much nicer
in that it provides something resumbling a dbic result set, but
I've already encountered a few things that seem like bugs and
sending the resultsetlike object to the stash in the same way as a
dbic resultset doesn't seem to work the same way.
Are other people using Solr based models? if so are you using
either of the two CPAN modules or something else? Do you have
examples and or notes you can share?
