Solr integration for Plone
Project description
Introduction
ftw.solr integrates the Solr search engine with Plone.
ftw.solr does not try to replace the portal catalog of Plone and does not hook into the catalog’s search function. Instead it provides a search utiltity that must be used explicitly. It’s meant to be used in search forms for fulltext searches while the portal catalog is still in use for things like navigation or folder contents. The goal is to get rid off all fulltext indexes (e.g. ZCTextIndex) in the portal catalog.
ftw.solr requires Apache Solr 7.0 or higher.
Installation
Add as dependency
Install ftw.solr by adding it to the list of eggs in your buildout or by adding it as a dependency of your policy package.
[instance]
eggs +=
ftw.solrSolr installation
To install a Solr server with buildout you can use the ftw.recipe.solr recipe.
[solr]
recipe = ftw.recipe.solr
cores = mycoreConfigure the Solr connection
The connections settings for Solr can be configured in ZCML and thus in buildout. Example:
[instance]
zcml-additional =
<configure xmlns:solr="http://namespaces.plone.org/solr">
<solr:connection host="localhost" port="8983" base="/solr/mycore"/>
</configure>
By default, ftw.solr will do full text extraction by passing the blob’s filesystem path to the Solr Cell extract handler, assuming that Solr runs on the same machine and has access to the blob storage.
For setups where this isn’t desired, the connection option upload_blobs can be set to true in order to make ftw.solr upload the blobs directly to the extract handler via HTTP POST:
[instance]
zcml-additional =
<configure xmlns:solr="http://namespaces.plone.org/solr">
<solr:connection host="localhost" port="8983" base="/solr/mycore" upload_blobs="true"/>
</configure>
Run buildout
After running buildout and restarting your instance you can install the ftw.solr addon in Plone.
Python 3.8 - Plone 5.2
Install and run tests locally:
python3 -m venv .
./bin/pip install -r requirements.txt
./bin/buildout -c test-plone-5.2.x-py38.cfg
./bin/testUsage
Get the ISolrSearch utility and call the search method to get search results from Solr.
from ftw.solr.interfaces import ISolrSearch
from zope.component import getUtility
solr = getUtility(ISolrSearch)
resp = solr.search(query=u'SearchableText:foo')You can get a plone.app.contentlisting style result by adapting IContentListing:
from plone.app.contentlisting.interfaces import IContentListing
listing = IContentListing(resp)Solr Index Maintenance
For indexing Plone content and other maintenance work you can use the solr Zope command. Run bin/instance solr -h for available options.
Clear the Solr index:
bin/instance solr clearRebuild the complete Solr index:
bin/instance solr reindexReindex specific indexes:
bin/instance solr reindex -i modified createdSynchronize the Solr index with the portal catalog:
bin/instance solr syncLinks
