Lucene Website Integration
Hi all,
I need to develop a website that allows for searching and browsing the
underlying documents collection. I am going to be using Lucene as the
underlying search engine. I am however not very familiar with web
development, and am new to Lucene as well. I have used JSP/Servlets
before, and since Lucene is written in Java I am guessing that that
will be the way forward this time as well.
My question is, is using JSP/Servlet an appropriate approach for what
I am trying to do? Also, I am more familiar with Perl and Python than
with Java. So, should I consider using any other Lucene implementation
(Plucene/PyLucene) etc.and go the CGI route instead?
Thanks in advance.

Hi Gary,
Yes, that certainly helped. Thanks for your reply.
Personally for me, it is interesting to hear about Grails, Ruby etc. I
usually only see folks using PHP, CGI etc. But, maybe it's just me. I
felt like I was being a little anachronistic in using JSP/Servlets.
Thanks again.

It has a Python client which at the very least might help with the learning curve. If you want to try an alternative to JSP/Servlets for your web framework, there's Grails/Groovy (http://grails.org/) which for me is a heck of a lot of fun. BTW, there's a Grails plugin available which uses Compass/Lucene. Who knows, it might be enough for you. A lot of folks are using Rails/Ruby/Solr which is also worth checking out.

I would suggest you take a look at Solr -- http://lucene.apache.org/solr
-- which requires essentially no Java knowledge to use. It has a Python
client which at the very least might help with the learning curve. If
you want to try an alternative to JSP/Servlets for your web framework,
there's Grails/Groovy (http://grails.org/) which for me is a heck of a
lot of fun. BTW, there's a Grails plugin available which uses
