Separate search logic into provider system. Move existing logic into a cloudsearch implementation of a search provider, and add a Solr implementation of a search provider.
Solr Search Provider for Reddit
The Solr search provider lets you run Reddit's search on your own Solr server.
Quickstart
To set up your own solr instance:
sudo apt-get -y install solr-tomcat
sudo ln -s /path/to/reddit/solr/schema.xml /usr/share/solr/conf
sudo service tomcat6 start
You should now be able to connect to Solr at http://127.0.0.1:8080
To configure reddit to use Solr for search, set the search provider to solr in your .ini file:
search_provider = solr
Then add the following config lines:
# version of solr service--versions 1.x and 4.x have been tested.
# only the major version number matters here
solr_version = 1
# solr search service hostname or IP
solr_search_host = 127.0.0.1
# hostname or IP for link upload
solr_doc_host = 127.0.0.1
# hostname or IP for subreddit search
solr_subreddit_search_host = 127.0.0.1
# hostname or IP subreddit upload
solr_subreddit_doc_host = 127.0.0.1
# solr port (assumed same on all hosts)
solr_port = 8080
# solr4 core name (not used with Solr 1.x)
solr_core = collection1
# default batch size
# limit is hard-coded to 1000
# set to 1 for testing
solr_min_batch = 500
# optionally, you may select your solr query parser here
# see documentation for your version of Solr
solr_query_parser =
Notes
If you build Solr from source, the default port will be 8983.
