Solr search in staging/live setups
Wed April 16 2008 15:25:03 UTCHi!
As the launch date for my shiny new 2.8 website draws closer, more bugs
begin to crop up: Today I encountered a particularily nasty issue: When
doing solr-powered searches in the live part of the site, all the links
of the results point to the staging server. While this in itself is
easily solvable in the style elements, I suspect that it also means that
there is no separate index for staging and live, i.e. I guess that
approved content which is not published so far will also be found from
the live site although it doesn't exist there.
Ok, normally, replication should copy approved content almost
immediately, but there will always be a gap in which 404s will be
displayed (I had to change the everymin cron run to only run every 5
mins, otherwise Apache would go down because of load after a few hours).
Also, I'm wondering what happens with stuff that is deleted in staging
and if another reindex() call is triggered after replication (which
would be quite a waste of resources if it all goes into one index anyways).
So my question is: Did I mess something up when installing? Since
code-init will also get replicated, I cannot really define a separate
indexer port (or whatever) for the live version, at least AFAIK. How
exactly is this supposed to work and what can I do to fix this?
Bye,
Andreas

Re: [midgard-user] Solr search in staging/live setups
Wed April 16 2008 21:30:02 UTCP.S.: There really should be a way to exclude specific articles from the
index. ATM, the only thing I can do is to hide the article completely
from some users based on ACLs, but displaying the article on site, but
not in search results requires some heavy hacking in the style elements
(and commit r16112 if you don't want to screw up the paging system).
This could work like the "hide in navigation" flag and maybe as an added
bonus also in DM2 schemas (f.x. a schema property named "noindex", which
is set to false by default)
Bye,
Andreas
