Erik Hatcher commented on SOLR-1499:
------------------------------------
The use case: a project that uses an intermediate Solr as a data "store". This
is then indexed from the store into (another) Solr instance, blending with
other entities from other data sources.
> SolrEntityProcessor - DIH EntityProcessor that queries an external Solr via
> SolrJ

> The SolrEntityProcessor queries an external Solr instance. The Solr documents
> returned are unpacked and emitted as DIH fields.
> The SolrEntityProcessor uses the following attributes:
> * solr='http://localhost:8983/solr/sms'
> ** This gives the URL of the target Solr instance.
> *** Note: the connection to the target Solr uses the binary SolrJ format.
> * query='Jefferson&sort=id+asc'
> ** This gives the base query string use with Solr. It can include any
> standard Solr request parameter. This attribute is processed under the
> variable resolution rules and can be driven in an inner stage of the indexing
> pipeline.
> * rows='10'
> ** This gives the number of rows to fetch per request..
> ** The SolrEntityProcessor always fetches every document that matches the
> request..
> * fields='id,tag'
> ** This selects the fields to be returned from the Solr request.
> ** These must also be declared as <field> elements.
> ** As with all fields, template processors can be used to alter the contents
> to be passed downwards.
> * timeout='30'
> ** This limits the query to 5 seconds. This can be used as a fail-safe to
> prevent the indexing session from freezing up. By default the timeout is 5
> minutes.
> Limitations:
> * Solr errors are not handled correctly.
> * Loop control constructs have not been tested.
> * Multi-valued returned fields have not been tested.
> The unit tests give examples of how to use it as the root entity and an inner
> entity.
