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). > Add a demo search server > ------------------------ > > Key: LUCENE-5376 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LUCENE-5376 > Project: Lucene - Core > Issue Type: Improvement > Reporter: Michael McCandless > Assignee: Michael McCandless > Attachments: lucene-demo-server.tgz > > > 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). -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.1.5#6160) --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: dev-unsubscr...@lucene.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: dev-h...@lucene.apache.org
