Solr Mongo Importer

Welcome to the Solr Mongo Importer project. This project provides MongoDb support for the Solr Data Import Handler.

I rewrited most code to suit my project's needs, but I think it is also suitable to most cases if you want to index a MongoDB with Solr.

Features

• Retrive data from a MongoDb collection
• Authenticate using MongoDb authentication
• Map Mongo fields to Solr fields
• Delta Import - NOTE: It is all based on your schema design

Classes

• MongoDataSource - Provides a MongoDb datasource
  • database (required) - The name of the database you want to connect to
  • host (optional - default: localhost)
  • port (optional - default: 27017)
  • username (optional)
  • password (optional)
• MongoEntityProcessor - Use with the MongoDataSource to query a MongoDb collection
  • collection (required)
  • query (required)
• MongoMapperTransformer - Map MongoDb fields to your Solr schema
  • column (required) - Solr uses this as field name
  • jsonpath (required) - See Jayway JsonPath, and result should return List

Installation

1. Firstly you will need a copy of the Solr Mongo Importer jar.
   1. Build your own using the ant build script you will need the JDK installed as well as Ant and Ivy
2. You will also need the Mongo Java driver JAR and Jayway JsonPath
3. Place both of these jars in your Solr core lib folder (If you created a core with name 'MyCore', place 'lib' under folder 'MyCore', i.e. 'MyCore/lib')

##Usage Here is an example showing the use of all components:

MongoDB Collection: Inventory.data

{
    "_id": ObjectId("56a5831083180eb506dafdcf"),
    "CompanyData": {
        "name": "My Company"
    },
    "ProductData": [
        {
            "title": "My Title 1",
            "description": "Long Description 1"
        },
        {
            "title": "My Title 2",
            "description": "Long Description 2"
        }
    ]
}

data-config.xml

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" ?>
<dataConfig>
    <dataSource name="MyMongo" type="MongoDataSource" database="Inventory" />
    <document name="Products">
        <entity processor="MongoEntityProcessor"
                query="{'CompanyData.name':'My Company'}"
                collection="data"
                datasource="MyMongo"
                transformer="MongoMapperTransformer">
            <field column="title" jsonpath="$.ProductData[*].title" />
            <field column="description" jsonpath="$.ProductData[*].description" />
        </entity>
    </document>
</dataConfig>
