Using Lucene/Solr with Spring Data

Question

I am using Spring Data (Mongo) for my web application (close to a social networking website). Now, I wish to provide search capabilities over the content written within the application (such as posts, tags, friends, etc.).

I believe Lucene/Solr is one of the better libraries to go for such cases, but am not sure how to use (integrate?) it with Spring Data (or maybe there is some inherent support within Spring for it).

Would appreciate help (documentation, links, blog posts, etc.) on this!

Answer 1

Though the post has been around for a while, you may have a look at this one https://github.com/SpringSource/spring-data-solr/

Answer 2

The Spring Data for Solr project provides a natural Spring Data like API for querying data from Solr. Read the examples for a quick overview.
