Adding authentication Token to the CommonsHttpSolrServer

["Narayanan, Karthikeyan" <Ka...@gs.com>]

Hi,
      We have installed the Solr in Tomcat server and enabled the
security constraint at the Tomcat level.. We require to pass the
authentication token(cookie) to the search call that is made using
CommonsHttpSolrServer. Would like to know how can I add  the token to
the CommonsHttpSolrServer. Appreciate any idea on this.

Thanks.
Karthik

You should be able to pass any custom URL parameters using ModifiableSolrParams class.

I took a look at commons-httpclient javadocs. This should work:

Create an instance of HttpState and use the HttpState#addCookie to add your
auth cookie. Then you can create an instance of HttpClient and use
HttpClient#setState method to pass the HttpState object. Finally pass this
HttpClient object to the constructor of CommonsHttpSolrServer.
