Something like:
public class SearchListener implements ServletContextListener {
@Override
public void contextInitialized(ServletContextEvent sce) {
ServletContext sc = sce.getServletContext();
String indexDir = sc.getInitParameter("indexDir");
SearcherManager searcherManager = new
SearcherManager(FSDirectory.open(new File(indexDir)), null);
sc.setAttribute("searcherManager", searcherManager);
}
public void contextDestroyed(ServletContextEvent sce) {
ServletContext sc = sce.getServletContext();
SearcherManager searcherManager = (SearcherManager)
sc.getAttribute("searcherManager");
if(searcherManager != null) {
try {
searcherManager.close();
} catch(IOException ex) {
logger.log(Level.SEVERE, String.format(
"Error shutting down search engine"), ex);
}
}
}
}
Usually does the trick. You need to put some parameters ("indexDir") into
your web.xml and make sure that it knows that SearchListener is a
ServletListener for your Web app.
But, to re-iterate what someone else said: if you really just want RESTful
search, you might be better off with Solr.
