Welcome to the Apache Solr project!
Solr is the popular, blazing fast open source enterprise search platform from the Apache Lucene project.
For a complete description of the Solr project, team composition, source code repositories, and other details, please see the Solr web site at https://lucene.apache.org/solr
Getting Started
All the following commands are entered from the "solr" directory which should be just below the install directory
To start Solr for the first time after installation, simply enter:
bin/solr start
This will launch a standalone Solr server in the background of your shell, listening on port 8983. Alternatively, you can launch Solr in "cloud" mode, which allows you to scale out using sharding and replication. To launch Solr in cloud mode, enter:
bin/solr start -cloud
To see all available options for starting Solr, please enter:
bin/solr start -help
After starting Solr, create either a core or collection depending on whether Solr is running in standalone (core) or SolrCloud mode (collection) by entering:
bin/solr create -c <name>
This will create a collection that uses a data-driven schema which tries to guess the correct field type when you add documents to the index. To see all available options for creating a new collection, enter:
bin/solr create -help
After starting Solr, direct your Web browser to the Solr Admin Console at:
http://localhost:8983/solr/
When finished with your Solr installation, shut it down by executing:
bin/solr stop -all
The -p PORT
option can also be used to identify the Solr instance to shutdown,
where more than one Solr is running on the machine.
Solr Examples
Solr includes a few examples to help you get started. To run a specific example, enter:
bin/solr -e <EXAMPLE> where <EXAMPLE> is one of:
cloud : SolrCloud example
schemaless : Schema-less example (schema is inferred from data during indexing)
techproducts : Kitchen sink example providing comprehensive examples of Solr features
For instance, if you want to run the SolrCloud example, enter:
bin/solr -e cloud
Indexing Documents
To add documents to the index, use bin/post. For example:
bin/post -c <collection_name> example/exampledocs/*.xml
For more information about Solr examples please read...

or linked from "docs/index.html" in a binary distribution.
Also, there are Solr clients for many programming languages, see
Files included in an Apache Solr binary distribution
server/
A self-contained Solr instance, complete with a sample
configuration and documents to index. Please see: bin/solr start -help
for more information about starting a Solr server.
example/
Contains example documents and an alternative Solr home
directory containing various examples.
dist/solr-<component>-XX.jar
The Apache Solr libraries. To compile Apache Solr Plugins,
one or more of these will be required. The core library is
required at a minimum. (see http://wiki.apache.org/solr/SolrPlugins
for more information).

Instructions for Building Apache Solr from Source
-
Download the Java 11 JDK (Java Development Kit) or later from https://jdk.java.net/ You will need the JDK installed, and the $JAVA_HOME/bin (Windows: %JAVA_HOME%\bin) folder included on your command path. To test this, issue a "java -version" command from your shell (command prompt) and verify that the Java version is 11 or later.
-
Download the Apache Solr distribution, linked from the above web site. Unzip the distribution to a folder of your choice, e.g. C:\solr or ~/solr Alternately, you can obtain a copy of the latest Apache Solr source code directly from the GIT repository:
https://lucene.apache.org/solr/community.html#version-control
-
Navigate to the root of your source tree folder and issue the
./gradlew tasks
command to see the available options for building, testing, and packaging Solr../gradlew assemble
will create a Solr executable. cd to "./solr/packaging/build/solr-9.0.0-SNAPSHOT" and run the bin/solr script to start Solr.NOTE:
gradlew
is the "Gradle Wrapper" and will automatically download and start using the correct version of Gradle.NOTE:
./gradlew help
will print a list of high-level tasks. There are also a number of plain-text files in /help.NOTE: This CWiki page describes getting/building/testing Solr in more detail:

Export control
This distribution includes cryptographic software. The country in which you currently reside may have restrictions on the import, possession, use, and/or re-export to another country, of encryption software. BEFORE using any encryption software, please check your country's laws, regulations and policies concerning the import, possession, or use, and re-export of encryption software, to see if this is permitted. See http://www.wassenaar.org/ for more information.
The U.S. Government Department of Commerce, Bureau of Industry and Security (BIS), has classified this software as Export Commodity Control Number (ECCN) 5D002.C.1, which includes information security software using or performing cryptographic functions with asymmetric algorithms. The form and manner of this Apache Software Foundation distribution makes it eligible for export under the License Exception ENC Technology Software Unrestricted (TSU) exception (see the BIS Export Administration Regulations, Section 740.13) for both object code and source code.
The following provides more details on the included cryptographic software:
Apache Solr uses the Apache Tika which uses the Bouncy Castle generic encryption libraries for extracting text content and metadata from encrypted PDF files. See http://www.bouncycastle.org/ for more details on Bouncy Castle.
