solr-scala-client

The simple Apache Solr client for Scala. This is based on the SolrJ and provides optimal interface for Scala.

Forked from : https://github.com/takezoe/solr-scala-client

Add the following dependency into your build.sbt to use solr-scala-client.

libraryDependencies += "be.avhconsult" %% "solr-scala-client" % "0.0.13"

This is a simplest example to show usage of solr-scala-client.

import jp.sf.amateras.solr.scala._

val client = new SolrClient("http://localhost:8983/solr")

// register
client
  .add(Map("id"->"001", "manu" -> "Lenovo", "name" -> "ThinkPad X201s"))
  .add(Map("id"->"002", "manu" -> "Lenovo", "name" -> "ThinkPad X220"))
  .add(Map("id"->"003", "manu" -> "Lenovo", "name" -> "ThinkPad X121e"))
  .commit

// query
val result = client.query("name: %name%")
  .fields("id", "manu", "name")
  .sortBy("id", Order.asc)
  .getResultAsMap(Map("name" -> "ThinkPad"))

result.documents.foreach { doc: Map[String, Any] =>
  println("id: " + doc("id"))
  println("  manu: " + doc("manu"))
  println("  name: " + doc("name"))
}

It's also possible to use the case class as the search result and parameters instead of Map.

// query
val result = client.query("name: %name%")
  .fields("id", "manu", "name")
  .sortBy("id", Order.asc)
  .getResultAs[Product](Param(name = "ThinkPad"))

result.documents.foreach { product: Product =>
  println("id: " + product.id)
  println("  manu: " + product.manu)
  println("  name: " + product.name)
}

Query Syntax

Following notations are available to embed variables to the query:

%VAR_NAME% : place holder to set a single word (parameter would be escaped)
?VAR_NAME? : place holder to set an expression (&, | and ! are available in an expression)
$VAR_NAME$ : string replacement (parameter would be not escaped)

See examples of parameterized queries and assembled Solr queries.

// %VAR_NAME% (Single keyword)
client.query("name: %name%").getResultAsMap(Map("name" -> "ThinkPad X201s"))
  // => name:"ThinkPad X201s"

// $VAR_NAME$ (String replacement)
client.query("name: $name$").getResultAsMap(Map("name" -> "ThinkPad AND X201s"))
  // => name:ThinkPad AND X201s

// ?VAR_NAME? (Expression)
client.query("name: ?name?").getResultAsMap(Map("name" -> "ThinkPad & X201s"))
  // => name:("ThinkPad" AND "X201s")

Highlight

Configure the query to return the highlighted content by QueryBuilder#highlight(). The highlighted content is set as the "highlight" property to the Map or the case class.

val result = client.query("content: Scala")
  // NOTE: unique key field is required.
  .fields("id")
  // Specify the highlighted field, prefix and postfix (prefix and postfix are optional).
  .highlight("content", "<strong>", "</strong>")
  .getResultAsMap()

result.documents.foreach { doc: Map[String, Any] =>
  println("id: " + doc("id"))
  println(doc("highlight")) // highlighted content is set as the "highlight" property
}

solr-scala-client expects that the unique key is "id". If your schema has the different field as the unique key, you can specify the unique key name as following:

val result = client.query("content: Scala")
  .id("documentId") // Specify the unique key name
  .fields("documentId")
  .highlight("content", "<strong>", "</strong>")
  .getResultAsMap()

Asynchronous API

solr-scala-client has also asynchronous API based on AsyncHttpCleint.

val client = new AsyncSolrClient("http://localhost:8983/solr")

// Register
client
  .register(Map("id" -> "005", "name" -> "ThinkPad X1 Carbon", "manu" -> "Lenovo"))
  .onComplete{
    case Success(x) => println("registered!")
    case Failure(t) => t.printStackTrace()
  }

// Query
client.query("name:%name%")
  .fields("id", "manu", "name")
  .facetFields("manu")
  .sortBy("id", Order.asc)
  .getResultAsMap(Map("name" -> "ThinkPad X201s"))
  .onComplete {
    case Success(x) => println(x)
    case Failure(t) => t.printStackTrace()
  }
