The SolrIndexer is a tool developed by Paul Ramirez to export a File Manager Catalog into Apache Solr.
To use the tool, from the File Manager ./bin deployment directory, run:
| Code Block |
|---|
java -Djava.ext.dirs=../lib org.apache.oodt.cas.filemgr.tools.SolrIndexer |
This should result in:
| No Format |
|---|
usage: java org.apache.oodt.cas.filemgr.tools.SolrIndexer -a,--all Index all items in catalog -cq,--catalogQuery <query> Not yet implemented -d,--delete Delete items before indexing -fmu,--fmUrl <Filemgr URL> URL to the CAS FileManager -h,--help Print this message -mf,--metFile <file> Index this met file -o,--optimize Optimize the Solr index when done -p,--product <productId> Product id to index -su,--solrUrl <Solr URL> URL to the Solr server |
The command line arguments are fairly self descriptive. What's not is the config file that the tool takes that specifies the mapping of metadata fields from the File Manager Catalog. From this post and the work of Tom Bennett, we see that parameter is:
| Code Block |
|---|
SOLR_INDEXER_CONFIG |
Which takes a full file path to the indexer.properties file. You can find a sample file here
A sample full invocation of the tool is provided as:
| Code Block |

java -DSOLR_INDEXER_CONFIG=/var/kat/katconfig/static/oodt/cas-filemgr/policy/indexer.properties -Djava.ext.dirs=/usr/local/oodt/cas-filemgr/lib/ org.apache.oodt.cas.filemgr.tools.SolrIndexer --all --fmUrl http://localhost:9101 |
