README.md
Apache Lucene and Solr
Apache Lucene is a high-performance, full featured text search engine library written in Java.
Apache Solr is an enterprise search platform written in Java and using Apache Lucene. Major features include full-text search, index replication and sharding, and result faceting and highlighting.
Online Documentation
This README file only contains basic setup instructions. For more comprehensive documentation, visit:
Building with Gradle
Building Lucene
See lucene/BUILD.md.
Building Solr
Firstly, you need to set up your development environment (OpenJDK 11 or greater).
We'll assume that you know how to get and set up the JDK - if you don't, then we suggest starting at https://www.oracle.com/java/ and learning more about Java, before returning to this README. Solr runs with Java 11 and later.
As of 9.0, Lucene/Solr uses Gradle as the build system. Ant build support has been removed.
To build Lucene and Solr, run (./ can be omitted on Windows):
./gradlew assemble
NOTE: DO NOT use gradle command that is already installed on your machine (unless you know what you'll do).
The "gradle wrapper" (gradlew) does the job - downloads the correct version of it, setups necessary configurations.
The first time you run Gradle, it will create a file "gradle.properties" that contains machine-specific settings. Normally you can use this file as-is, but it can be modified if necessary.
The command above packages a full distribution of Solr server; the package can be located at:
solr/packaging/build/solr-*
Note that the gradle build does not create or copy binaries throughout the source repository so you need to switch to the packaging output folder above; the rest of the instructions below remain identical. The packaging directory is rewritten on each build.
For development, especially when you have created test indexes etc, use
the ./gradlew dev task which will copy binaries to ./solr/packaging/build/dev
but only overwrite the binaries which will preserve your test setup.
If you want to build the documentation, type ./gradlew -p solr documentation.
Running Solr
After building Solr, the server can be started using
the bin/solr control scripts. Solr can be run in either standalone or
distributed (SolrCloud mode).
To run Solr in standalone mode, run the following command from the solr/
directory:
bin/solr start
To run Solr in SolrCloud mode, run the following command from the solr/
directory:
bin/solr start -c
The bin/solr control script allows heavy modification of the started Solr.
Common options are described in some detail in solr/README.txt. For an
exhaustive treatment of options, run bin/solr start -h from the solr/
directory.
Gradle build and IDE support
- IntelliJ - IntelliJ idea can import the project out of the box. Code formatting conventions should be manually adjusted.
- Eclipse - Not tested.
- Netbeans - Not tested.
Gradle build and tests
./gradlew assemble will build a runnable Solr as noted above.
./gradlew check will assemble Lucene/Solr and run all validation
tasks unit tests.
./gradlew help will print a list of help commands for high-level tasks. One
of these is helpAnt that shows the gradle tasks corresponding to ant
targets you may be familiar with.
