Solr
Escenic
Content Engine's
search functionality is provided by Apache Solr, a Java-based open
source search engine that runs as a web application alongside the
Content Engine.
The Widget Framework Data
Source component uses Solr search for its Query by
search option, and it is also used for
Widget Framework
event search functionality. In order for this search functionality to
work, the
com.escenic.framework.search.solr.SolrSearchEngine
and
com.escenic.framework.search.solr.HttpClientFactory
components must be correctly configured. It is also important to make
sure that the Solr server itself is correctly configured to work well
with the
Widget Framework.
A Solr schema for defining the content Solr is to index is included with the Widget Framework, and it is preconfigured to provide the basic search functionality required by the Widget Framework. You may, however, need to add some additional configurations to the schema in order to support specific Widget Framework features.
