Hi Serdar, take a look at Solr's DataImportHandler:

Hi, I am rather new to Solr and have a question. We have around 200.000 txt files which are placed into the file cloud. The file path is something similar to this: file/97/8f/840/fa4-1.txt file/a6/9d/ab0/ca2-2.txt etc. and we also store the metadata (like title, description, tags etc) about these files in the mysql server. So, what I want to do is to index title, description, tags and other data from mysql, and also get the txt file from file server, and link them as one record for searching, but I could not figure out how to automatize this process. I can give the path from the sql query like, Select id, title, description, file_path, and then solr can use this path to retrieve txt file, but I don't know whether is it possible or not. What is the best way to index these files with their tag title and description without coding in Java (Perl is ok). These txt files are large, between 100kb-10mb, so the last option is to store them in the database. Thanks, Serdar
