[ http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SOLR-30?page=comments#action_12451204 ] Fuad Efendi commented on SOLR-30: ---------------------------------
Hi Philip, Many thanks for posting the sample, just a few (new) thoughts after getting more familiar with SOLR and Cocoon... Background: "HTTP interface with configurable response formats (XML/XSLT, JSON, Python, Ruby)" Requirements: "HTTP interface supporting pure Java clients" Am I right? So, in this case preferable way should be Java-over-HTTP transport layer, instead of HttpClient+XmlParser... your sample is simply Java-over-XML-over-HTTP (why not over JSON, or even CSV?) Probably RMI-IIOP is the answer (which is Java-RMI-over-HTTP), but I'd prefer XSL/XML anyway... JSON is better than XML in case of AJAX, XML is preferable for 'server-side' transformations... > Java client code for performing searches against a Solr instance > ---------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: SOLR-30 > URL: http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SOLR-30 > Project: Solr > Issue Type: New Feature > Components: search > Reporter: Philip Jacob > Priority: Minor > Attachments: solrsearcher-client.zip > > > Here are a few classes that connect to a Solr instance to perform searches. > Results are returned in a Response object. The Response encapsulates a > List<Map<String,Field>> that gives you access to the key data in the results. > This is the main part that I'm looking for comments on. > There are 2 dependencies for this code: JDOM and Commons HttpClient. I'll > remove the JDOM dependency in favor of regular DOM at some point, but I think > that the HttpClient dependency is worthwhile here. There's a lot that can be > exploited with HttpClient that isn't demonstrated in this class. The purpose > here is mainly to get feedback on the API of SolrSearcher before I start > optimizing anything. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - If you think it was sent incorrectly contact one of the administrators: http://issues.apache.org/jira/secure/Administrators.jspa - For more information on JIRA, see: http://www.atlassian.com/software/jira
