Docker

Apache Solr in a docker image, the version of the image / tag will match the version of Solr

For more information on this project please refer to: Docker Solr

Usage

Run Solr and index example data

To run a single Solr server:

$ docker run --name my_solr -d -p 8983:8983 -t solr

Then with a web browser go to http://localhost:8983/ to see the Admin Console (adjust the hostname for your docker host).

To use Solr, you need to create a "core", an index for your data. For example:

$ docker exec -it my_solr solr create_core -c gettingstarted

In the web UI if you click on "Core Admin" you should now see the "gettingstarted" core.

If you want to load some of the example data that is included in the container:

$ docker exec -it my_solr post -c gettingstarted example/exampledocs/manufacturers.xml

In the UI, find the "Core selector" popup menu and select the "gettingstarted" core, then select the "Query" menu item. This gives you a default search for *:* which returns all docs. Hit the "Execute Query" button, and you should see a few docs with data. Congratulations!
