solr search?

[Jan Prieser <j....@hotornot.de>]

Hello,

i'm trying to use solr in combination with couchdb and am thinking about 
implementing my own external processes to query Solr and use 
[update_notification] to index new documents.

has anyone gone this way before?

i already tried to use couchdb-lucene, but i need the distance functions 
from solr to find locations and sort the results by distance from a 
given point.
this isn't possible with couchdb-lucene alone, is it?

thanks for sharing your insights.

couchdb-lucene does not currently incorporate any of the geo-
extensions, but it comes up enough that it's something I wanted to
look into for 0.6.

Solr has lots of extra features over lucene but is, I think, quite
hard to set up right.

Finally, I would use the _changes feed to keep your external index
synchronized and avoid the update_notification approach.

yes, i've found it.
since i need more than just bounding box searches (which is also 
possible with couchdb-lucene), geocouch isn't sufficient.

i'm interested in searching various fields and order the results by 
distance.
In solr this would be something like:
http://localhost:8983/solr/select/?q=field1:value1 AND 
_val_:"recip(hsin(0.78, -1.6, lat_rad, lon_rad, 3963.205), 1, 1, 0)"^100

Have you found and tried GeoCouch?
