Apache SOLR makes it easy to add search capability into your apps. SOLR is a search server (backed by the Lucene serach library). This repository provides a way for you to take advantage of that in OpenShift.
Which overrides the official SOLR image to tweak a few things in order to run SOLR efficiently on OpenShift.
Which allow you to easily push your project specific configuration files into the SOLR container.
Sounds cool right? It is. And here's how you can use it.
- Bring up a local OpenShift cluster.
- There are some Chocolatey Scripts that make it very easy to do this on Windows.
- Run the
buildLocalProject.shscript in theopenshiftdirectory.
This will create a Solr project and generate all of the build and deployment configurations needed for a working Solr instance complete with a core configured from source.
Create the SOLR app from a Docker image
> oc new-app dudash/openshift-solr --name=solr-imageonly-demo
Now you can access it via the route that was automatically exposed on port 8983 and whereever your OpenShift apps route (e.g. openshift-solr-myproject.127.0.0.1.nip.io). Note: this won't autogenerate a SOLR core.
- Create a repo
- Create a folder called
solr/autocore/confand add SOLR config files for your desired SOLR configuration (Refer to the sample in the project). - Wire up your build configuration to point to the repo a configuration. Refer to the script and template samples in the
openshiftdirectory.
This repo doesn't require the s2i tool to build the image. However, if you look into the Dockerfile, it does set some s2i LABELS in order for OpenShift to be able to use it as an s2i builder image.
