Tutorial

Solr tutorial

Install

Follow the Install to get an example configuration running in Tomcat.

Testing

These commands will need to be run from a ../cygwin/install prompt which has curl installed.

Download some of the example ``xml` files`_ from the SOLR source code.

Update

I am updating the SOLR repository using:

http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/incubator/solr/trunk/example/exampledocs/ipod_video.xml

Post this document to the SOLR server using curl:

curl http://localhost:8080/solr-1.0/update --data-binary @ipod_video.xml

Commit the changes:

curl http://localhost:8080/solr-1.0/update --data-binary '<commit/>'

Select

Using curl:

curl http://localhost:8080/solr-1.0/select?q=video

or… using the SOLR admin interface:

../../images/solr/solr-admin-query.gif]

The query should return one result.

Delete

ID

Using curl:

curl http://localhost:8080/solr/update --data-binary "<delete><id>TMWEB_converted_to_standard_format_txt_1</id></delete>" -H "Content-type:text/xml;charset=utf-8"
curl http://localhost:8080/solr/update --data-binary "<commit/>" -H "Content-type:text/xml;charset=utf-8"

If the delete is not committed, the deletesPending value will be incremented.

Query

To delete by query:

curl http://localhost:8080/solr/update --data-binary "<delete><query>productType:lost-code</query></delete>" -H "Content-type:text/xml;charset=utf-8"
curl http://localhost:8080/solr/update --data-binary "<commit/>" -H "Content-type:text/xml;charset=utf-8"
