SimpleJSONEntityProcessor

Process simple JSON responses in Solr's DataImportHandler.

Build

mvn package

Example

I have a simple JSON API at http://localhost:4000/foo, which I want to import in Solr using a URLDataSource with SimpleJSONEntityProcessor:

Put the resulting jar file somewhere accessible from Solr. In my case, I added it to $SOLR/contrib/dataimporthandler-extras/lib. Load the jar file by configuring solrconfig.xml. In my case, I added:

<lib dir="${solr.install.dir:../../../..}/dist/" regex=".*\.jar" />
<lib dir="${solr.install.dir:../../../..}/contrib/dataimporthandler-extras/lib/" regex=".*\.jar" />

Configure Solr to use DIH in solrconfig.xml:

<requestHandler name="/dataimport" class="solr.DataImportHandler">
<lst name="defaults">
  <str name="config">data-config.xml</str>
</lst>
</requestHandler>

Configure the DIH (in data-config.xml):

<dataConfig>
	<dataSource type="URLDataSource" />
	<document>
		<entity name="doc"
			url="http://localhost:4000/foo"
		processor="SimpleJSONEntityProcessor">
			<field column="id" name="id" />
			<field column="name" name="name_t" />
		</entity>
	</document>
</dataConfig>
