YiiSolr is a Yii extension that provides a wrapper for the pecl solr library (http://www.php.net/manual/en/book.solr.php) to make fast searching with Yii really easy. The wrapper allows the use of familiar Yii constructs such as models, data providers etc with a solr index.

Unable to use this extension
Could you please eloborate more on how to set up.
I have configured the aliases path and solr component. And also i have started the solr. I have indexed my database using solr. Now i want to use this extension to fetch the records. But initial set up was problem. When i do the phpunit test as mentioned it throws me below mentioned 6errors.

Tests: 26, Assertions: 2824, Errors: 6.And after adding the configuration to the config file. and i use the following code in my controller it shows an error
code:
$criteria = new ASolrCriteria; $criteria->query = "name:test"; // lucene query syntax $docs = ASolrDocument::model()->findAll($criteria);Error:
include(ASolrCriteria.php): failed to open stream: No such file or directoryThanks in advance.
Import the extension
You have to import the extension components, so in your config/main.php:
'import' => array('packages.solr.*')For the tests to work, you must have SQLite installed as well as the example index that comes with Solr. I will try and improve this in future to make it easier to run the tests
How to add fields & also it fetches only 10 records
Hi,
How can add fields. It is not accepting any other name for example
$doc = new ASolrDocument; $doc->id = 123; $doc->name = "test document"; $doc->city = ""; $doc->save(); $doc->getSolrConnection()->commit();Error
It fetches only 10 records even if i using findAll($criteria); If i manually search from solr it fetches more than 10 records. Can you please tell me how to fetch all records.
I have modified the function query in ASolrDocument to fetch all the records.
if(!$all) { $criteria->setLimit(1); } else { $criteria->setLimit(99999); }Accessing SolrParams
phpnode,
How would I incorporate SolrParams class so I can add individual params like:
SolrParams::addParam('q.op', 'OR');
Thanks in advance
ASolrCriteria extends SolrQuery which in turn extends SolrParams
So you can just do
$criteria->addParam("foo","bar")
Adding fields
Addenum: For any others new to Solr you need to add your custom fields in the solr config/schema.xml file. Then everything should work fine.
Has anyone figured out the adding new fields to a document for indexing? This will blow up with the error: ERROR: [doc=1] unknown field 'creator'.
$ia_doc = new ASolrDocument(); $ia_doc->id = $doc['id']; $ia_doc->name = $doc['Title']; $ia_doc->creator = $doc['Creator'];ASolrDocument::setAttributes() and ASolrDocument::add() also return this error.
Thanks,
Dean
Remote Solr server
Will this work with a remote Solr instance? I am assuming I can just specify an alternative host in the config, but I want to make sure before I hassle my webhost to install the PECL Solr package.
Thanks
Re: Will this work with a remote Solr instance?
A. Yes, configure the host settings for the connection in your main config.
