only diverged from the file format because of wise practical reasons.
If you want to use Lucene, just go with Solr.

Solr is great in Ruby environments to. Really it is. Sure, there's
this JVM beast, and deployment issues, and all that, but they
generally aren't that painful. And the benefits are totally worth it.
