Alfresco WCM Lifecycle
Indexing Architecture
Solr Customizations• Custom Solr
– Schema.xml• Fields (Type, Indexed/Stored)• Unique key
– Solrconfig.xml• “dismax” type request handler to define queried fields• ExtractingRequestHandler (indexing RT docs)
Custom Solr Schema <field name="page_url" type="string" indexed="true" stored="true"
required="true"/> <field name="page_title" type="text" indexed="true" stored="true"/> <field name="page_category" type="string" indexed="true"
stored="true"/> <field name="page_type" type="string" indexed="true"
stored="true"/> <field name="page_last_modified" type="date" indexed="true"
stored="true"/> <field name="page_text" type="text" indexed="true" stored="true"/> <field name="page_file_size" type="int" indexed="false"
stored="true"/> </fields>
<uniqueKey>page_url</uniqueKey>
ExtractingRequestHandler <!-- Solr Cell: http://wiki.apache.org/solr/ExtractingRequestHandler --> <requestHandler name="/update/extract"
class="org.apache.solr.handler.extraction.ExtractingRequestHandler" startup="lazy">
<lst name="defaults"> <str name="fmap.content">page_text</str> <str name="fmap.title">page_title</str> <str name="uprefix">ignored_</str> </lst> </requestHandler>
<dynamicField name="ignored_*" type="ignored"/>
ContentStreamUpdateRequest up = new ContentStreamUpdateRequest("/update/extract");up.addFile(new File(filePath));SolrServer solrServer = new CommonsHttpSolrServer(solrServerUrl);solrServer.request(up);solrServer.commit();
Custom RequestHandler <!-- DisMaxRequestHandler allows easy searching across multiple
fields for simple user-entered phrases. It's implementation is now just the standard SearchHandler with a default query type of "dismax". see http://wiki.apache.org/solr/DisMaxRequestHandler --> <requestHandler name=”solrDemoDismax" class="solr.SearchHandler" > <lst name="defaults"> <str name="defType">dismax</str> <str name="qf"> page_title^5.0 page_text^1.0 </str> </lst> </requestHandler>
