"GeoPortal Facets" application still exists?

[tchaddad]

On the Geoportal downloads page there is an older application called "GeoPortal Facets for GeoPortal Server", that was listed as downloadable as recently as GeoPortal 1.2.5

However the page explaining Geoportal-Facets seems to no longer be hosted on the wiki:
https://github.com/Esri/geoportal-server/wiki/Geoportal-Facets

Has the GeoPortal Facets functionality been integrated in to later versions of Geoportal in the 1.2.x line? Or has that application been abandoned?

We are upgrading from an older GeoPortal version and just wanted to know if we can continue to use these features or not...

hi, the wiki page with the facets app is found here:
https://github.com/Esri/geoportal-server/wiki/Geoportal-Facets-using-Apache-Solr

the link to the download is available from there also.

Since we started Geoportal Server 2.x our work on facets is happening in that new generation of Geoportal Server. Please visit https://github.com/Esri/geoportal-server-catalog.

A sample of the new Geoportal Server 2.x is found here: http://geoss.esri.com/geoportal2/

Thanks Marten - at the moment we're upgrading from 1.24 to 1.2.9, and wondering if the Facets application from 1.2.5 will work with 1.2.9.

I guess we will test to see if we can get it going and report back!

this app actually connects to solr directly, so question is what version of solr you're planning to use and if its API is drastically different from what we tested with

Ah ok thanks -the docs on the Facets page you linked to reference Solr 4.6.x, so we will try to match that
