Yonik Seeley commented on LUCENE-5376:
--------------------------------------

I think there are plenty of lucene-based search servers already in existence... 
We shouldn't bloat lucene/solr even further by adding yet another.  Something 
like this belongs as a separate project (collaborate on github with whoever 
else wants to build/maintain this).

> I think it'd be useful to have a "demo" search server for Lucene.
> Rather than being fully featured, like Solr, it would be minimal, just 
> wrapping the existing Lucene modules to show how you can make use of these 
> features in a server setting.
> The purpose is to demonstrate how one can build a minimal search server on 
> top of APIs like SearchManager, SearcherLifetimeManager, etc.
> This is also useful for finding rough edges / issues in Lucene's APIs that 
> make building a server unnecessarily hard.
> I don't think it should have back compatibility promises (except Lucene's 
> index back compatibility), so it's free to improve as Lucene's APIs change.
> As a starting point, I'll post what I built for the "eating your own dog 
> food" search app for Lucene's & Solr's jira issues 
> http://jirasearch.mikemccandless.com (blog: 
> http://blog.mikemccandless.com/2013/05/eating-dog-food-with-lucene.html ). It 
> uses Netty to expose basic indexing & searching APIs via JSON, but it's very 
> rough (lots nocommits).
