Re: New to Solr 5.5

[Bhanu Prasad]

So I was able to create the core using the cli not with root but with
'solr' user access. I sudo as solr in the box and ran the command to create
the core

[solr@solr bin]$ ./solr create -c demo

Copying configuration to new core instance directory:
/var/solr/data/demo

Creating new core 'demo' using
command:http://localhost:8983/solr/admin/cores?action=CREATE=demo=demo

{
  "responseHeader":{
"status":0,
"QTime":2724},
  "core":"demo"}

This created the required file/folder structure under "/var/solr/data" It
has all the default files, I need some direction to configure existing
Cassandra keyspace into my solr core. I have already placed the Cassandra
jdbc drivers into my Java/lib, I believe I should be using the 'DIH'
example configs for getting the data into solr ?

Re: New to Solr 5.5

[Erick Erickson]

Creating a core in stand-alone mode _also_ requires that the config files
are findable, in this case on disk rather than on Zookeeper
(sorry for the misdirection).

So you need to create a directory, usually under solr_home that has
the conf directory in it. That is the "instanceDir" that is one of the
core creation
parameters.

Yes, this is a little arcane

Erick

Re: New to Solr 5.5

[Bhanu Prasad]

I went through the solr-ref-guide. I got a brief idea on how it works, But
I can't help to think as to why I am unable to create a core through web UI
? Does it have any dependency on SolrCloud ? If I am planning to run an
standalone instance do I need to create core's only through the command
line and with 'solr' user privileges ? Please advise.

Re: New to Solr 5.5

[Erick Erickson]

OK, take Cassandra out of it for the time being and spend
some time familiarizing yourself with Solr would be my
advice ;)

Yeah, the Solr documentation is a bit scattered, but your most
complete and up to date reference is the Solr reference guide
here:

In particular, see the
https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/solr/Solr+Start+Script+Reference
upconfig command.

You can download the complete reference guide through the link in the
upper left.

The general idea here is that your configurations (solrconfig.xml,
schema.xml and all the rest) are
kept in Zookeeper. When creating a collection, you must reference that
configuration set. The
examples automatically push the configuration set up to Zookeeper,
which you can see in the
adminUI>>cloud>>tree view.

Best,
Erick

Hi Erick,

I am very new to this, I haven't uploaded any configsets. I need help to
get existing cassandra keyspace into solr to do analysis. I am completely
new to this technology so having trouble with finding right documentation
on how to do it.

Re: New to Solr 5.5

[Erick Erickson]

What configsets have you uploaded to Solr? The canned example does
this for you. The configurations must reside in Zookeeper, NOT on the
local disk. I think that's probably what you're seeing...

Best,
Erick

Re: New to Solr 5.5

[Bhanu Prasad]

I was able to create a core using create -c option, But this time with user
as solr. It worked. How can I make sure that the solr user is running the
webapplication command requests as well ? Any help ?

[solr@solr bin]$ ./solr create -c cassie

Copying configuration to new core instance directory:
/var/solr/data/cassie

Creating new core 'cassie' using command:
http://localhost:8983/solr/admin/cores?action=CREATE=cassie=cassie

{
  "responseHeader":{

Re: New To Solr, getting error using the quick start guide

Hi Swawn.

Thanks so much for the response. I will do so more tests on this and send
more info in the next day or 2, maybe that will illuminate something.  I
hope you are having a great weekend.

All the best.

 1. You don't actually put PDF/Word into Solr. Instead, it is run
 through content and metadata extraction process and then index that.
 This is important because a computer does not understand what you
 are looking for when you open a PDF. It only understand whatever text
 is possible to extract. In case of PDF it is often not much at all,
 unless it was generated with accessibility layer in place. You can
 experiment with what you can extract by downloading a standalone
 Apache Tika install, which has a command line version or using Solr's
 extractOnly flag. Solr, internally, uses Tika, so the results should
 be the same.

 2) When you do a search you can do field:(Keyword1 Keyword2 Keyword3
 Keyword4) and you get as results any document that matches one of
 those. Not sure about 1000 of them in one go, but certainly a large
 number.

 On the other hand, if you have same keywords all the time and you are
 trying to match documents against them, you might be more interested
 in Elastic Search's percolator
 (http://www.elasticsearch.org/guide/en/elasticsearch/reference/current/search-percolate.html
 ) or in Luwak (https://github.com/flaxsearch/luwak).

 So if i leave the line no part.
 1. I guess putting pdf/word  in solr for search can be done, These
 documents will go go in solr.
 2. For search any automatic way to give a excel sheet or large search
 keywords to search for .
 ie i have 1000's of words that i want to search in doc can i do it
 collectively or send search queries one by one.

 If you can, then yes you probably can automate the searching with
 Solr, though you will still have serious issues (sentence crossing
 line-boundaries, etc). But I suspect your whole approach will change
 once you try to do this manually.

 Hi All,

 I am  new to Solr and from initial reading i am quite convinced Solr
 will be of great help. Can anyone help in making that decision.

 Usecase:
 1.  I will have PDF,Word docs generated daily/weekly ( lot of them )
 which kinds of get overwritten frequently.
 2. I have a dictionary kind of thing ( having a list of which
 words/small sentences should be part of above docs , words which
 cannot be and alternatives for some  ).
 3. Now i want Solr to search my Docs produced in step 1 to be searched
 for words/small sentences from step 2 and give me my Doc Name/line no
 in which they exist.

 Will Solr be a good help to me, If anybody can help giving some

 Appreciate your help and patience.

Re: New to Solr can someone help me to know if Solr fits my use case

[Saurabh Agarwal]

Thanks a lot Alex for your reply, Appreciate the same.

So if i leave the line no part.
1. I guess putting pdf/word  in solr for search can be done, These
documents will go go in solr.
2. For search any automatic way to give a excel sheet or large search
keywords to search for .
ie i have 1000's of words that i want to search in doc can i do it
collectively or send search queries one by one.

Thanks

Re: New to Solr can someone help me to know if Solr fits my use case

[Alexandre Rafalovitch]

1. You don't actually put PDF/Word into Solr. Instead, it is run
through content and metadata extraction process and then index that.
This is important because a computer does not understand what you
are looking for when you open a PDF. It only understand whatever text
is possible to extract. In case of PDF it is often not much at all,
unless it was generated with accessibility layer in place. You can
experiment with what you can extract by downloading a standalone
Apache Tika install, which has a command line version or using Solr's
extractOnly flag. Solr, internally, uses Tika, so the results should
be the same.

2) When you do a search you can do field:(Keyword1 Keyword2 Keyword3
Keyword4) and you get as results any document that matches one of
those. Not sure about 1000 of them in one go, but certainly a large
number.

On the other hand, if you have same keywords all the time and you are
trying to match documents against them, you might be more interested
in Elastic Search's percolator
(http://www.elasticsearch.org/guide/en/elasticsearch/reference/current/search-percolate.html
) or in Luwak (https://github.com/flaxsearch/luwak).

Hi Gora

Thank you for your reply.

We are planning on having a loadbalancer in front of our frontend servers.

If I have two distinct solr indexes, how will I keep them synchronized? I 
expect that one of the frontend servers will have the task of updating the 
product repository on the e-commerce site. This server will then update the 
local solr index after product update has finished.


Is there an easy  way that I can keep the two indexes synchronized without

Anders,

Take a look at Solr Replication. Essentially, you'll treat one as a master
 one as a slave. Both master  slave can be used to serve traffic. If one
of them goes down, the other can be used as a master for the interim.

RE: New to Solr/Lucene design question

[Feak, Todd]

A third option - Use dynamic fields.

Add a dynamic field call *_stash. This will allow new fields for
documents to be added down the road without changing schema.xml, yet
still allow you to query on fields like arresteeFirstName_stash
without extra overhead.

Subject: New to Solr/Lucene design question

Hello All,
We are using SOLR/Lucene as the search engine for an application
we are designing.  The application is a workflow application that can
receive different types of documents.

For example, we are currently working on getting booking documents but
will also accept arrest documents later this year.

We have defined a custom schema that incorporates some schemas designed
by federal consortiums.  From those schemas we pluck out values that we
want 
SOLR/Lucene to index and search on and we go from our instance document
to
a SOLR document.

The fields in our schema.xml look like this:

 fields
!--   record-uri, unique identifier for any type of record  --
   field name=record-uri type=string indexed=true stored=true
required=true / 
   !--   stash-filepath, path to the entire XML document on the file
system --
   field name=stash-filepath type=string indexed=true
stored=true required=true /
   !--   stash-content THIS IS THE FIELD I HAVE QUESTIONS ABOUT--
   field name=stash-content type=string indexed=true
stored=true termVectors=true multiValued=true ssomitNorms=true/
/fields

Above, there is a field called stash-content.  The goal is to take any
search able data from
any document type and put it in this field.  For example, we would store
data like this in XML format:


add
  doc
field name=stash-contentarrestee_firstname_Yogesh/field
field name=stash-contentarrestee_lastname_Chawla/field
field name=stash-contentarrestee_middlename_myMiddleName/field
  /doc
/add
The advantage to such an approach is that we can add new document types
to search on and as long
as they use the same semantics such as arrestee_firstname
that we won't to update any code.  It also makes
the code simple and generic for any document type.

We can search on first name like this for a starts with
query:arrestee_firstname_Y*.  We had to use
the _ instead of a space so that each word would not be searched when a
query was performed and only
a single string would be searched.  (hope that makes sense).

The cons could be a performance hit.  

The other approach is to add fields explicitly like this:

add
  doc
field name=arrestee_firstnameYogesh/field
field name=arrestee_lastnameChawla/field
field name=arrestee_middlenamemyMiddleName/field
  /doc
/add
This approach seems more traditional.  The pros of it are that it is
straight forward.  The cons are that every time
we add a new document type to search on, we have to update schema.xml
and the java code that creates SOLR
documents.

The number of documents that we will eventually want to search on is
about 5 million.  However, this will take a while
to ramp up to and we are more immediately looking at searching on about
100,000.

I am new to SOLR and just inherited this project with approach number 1.
Is this something that is going to bite us in the
future?

Thanks,
Yogesh

Re: New to Solr/Lucene design question

[Yogesh Chawla - PD]

Hi Todd,
I think I see what you are saying here.

In our schema.xml we can define it like this:
fields
!--   record-uri, unique identifier for any type of record  --
   field name=record-uri type=string indexed=true stored=true 
required=true / 
   !--   stash-filepath, path to the entire XML document on the file system --
   field name=stash-filepath type=string indexed=true stored=true 
required=true /

   dynamicField name=*_stashString type=string indexed=true 
stored=true/
/fields

and then add data like this:

add
  doc
field name=arrestee_firstname_stashStringYogesh/field
field name=arrestee_lastname_stashStringChawla/field
field name=arrestee_middlename_stashStringmyMiddleName/field
  /doc
/add

If we need to add other types of dynamic data types, we can do that at a later 
time
by adding a different type of dynamic field.

This way we are not querying a single field 'stash-content' but rather just the 
fields we are interested
in and there is no need to change the java code or the schema.xml.

Are we on the same wave length here?

Thanks a lot for the suggestion,
Yogesh

Please let me know where the search result is located. I can use php or
.net to display the result in web. Is it created on fly?

Thanks,
Xiaohui

Hello,

I am new to solr. 


Welcome!


I followed solr online tutorial to get the example
work. The search result is xml. I wonder if there is a way to show
result in a form. I saw there is example.xsl in conf/xslt directory. I
really don't know how to do it. Anyone has some ideas for me. I really
appreciate it!



Are you asking how to display results for people to see?  A nicely 
formatted website?


Solr (a database) does not aim to solve the display side... but there 
are lots of clients to help integrate with your website. 
php/java/.net/ruby/etc

the example.xsl is an example using XSLT to format results.  Check:
http://wiki.apache.org/solr/XsltResponseWriter

For php, check:
http://wiki.apache.org/solr/SolPHP

To add to the above: I think the XsltResponseWriter is not intended
for formatting results for display on your web site.  Normally you
would use your server-side language (PHP, Python, etc.) to query the
Solr server, get the results, and format them for display.  Solr
doesn't provide the front-end search interface for your web site --
you have to create that yourself.
