Description

This is alpha software! It is used in production, but it is not guaranteed to work with your setup!*

This chef cookbook is based on the shell-scripts which are distributed with the EXT:solr (thank you Ingo Renner!). The cookbook offers two LWRPs which should be enough to setup a solr app with unlimited solr cores.

Requirements

Platform:

• Debian, Ubuntu

The following Opscode cookbooks are dependencies:

• tomcat

If you want to user this cookbook with EXT:solr >= 3.0 you have to install java 7 on your system. When using the java-cookbook, you need to override this attribute:

node[:java][:jdk_version] = "7"

Attributes

• node[:typo3_solr][:solr][:solr_home] - Path to the directory in which the apps should be located

Usage

The following LWRPs are included:

typo3_solr_app is used to create a new webapp with the given configuration

For instances requiring Apache Solr < 4

typo3_solr_app "MySolrAppName" do
  solr '3.5.0'
  extension '2.2'
  plugin '1.2.0'
  languages %w{ german english french italian generic hungarian }
end

For instances requiring Apache Solr > 4

typo3_solr_app "MySolrAppName" do
  solr '4.7.1'
  extension '3.0'
  plugin_access '2.0'
  plugin_utils '1.1'
  plugin_lang '3.1'
  languages %w{ german english french italian generic hungarian }
end

typo3_solr_core is used to attach cores to a already created webapp

typo3_solr_core "de-TestWeb-123-de_DE" do
  language 'german'
  app 'MySolrAppName'
  action :add
end

Important information

The TYPO3 solr project has moved the sources to github. So we also need to fetch the information from github. We only handle this if you use the extension in version 3.1 or higher.

For the older versions we just use the files from forge.typo3.org.
