Hello Sanjeev,
This is how I did it:
1. Install Solr within OFbiz as component or on an external server.
2. Create a schema to suite your requirement. Few of the must have
fields are productId, categories (multi valued), price, inStock, product
name, description, etc. If you have variants, you would also like to
include features like size, colors etc.
3. Write a service to index the complete database. Disable out of the
box EECA as it may take many hours to index depending on your product set.
4. Modify out of the indexing EECA to index the products in Solr while
you add/update product, product price, category members etc.
5. Write an request event to fetch the facets while you show the product
categories. Alternatively, you can also use the Solr search engine to
drive the category pages as your products are indexed with category
information. For example if you have category A and making a solr
keyword search call by passing A as filterQuery parameter. For example,
if category field is categories in Solr, you solr query would look like
q=*.*&fq=categories:A.
6. Once you have all the products, it is upto you how you show them on
category pages.

Raj

install Solr on the ofbiz server, but not sure how to move forward.
Would appreciate any help / guidance with it.
