Thanks for the work. As I might not be alone at being unable to get it to work, I thought I would ask for some easy instructions...

Hi jsmm.

Thanks for trying out the module. Please note that the following assumes you have a good understanding of how to work with views. After enabling the module, it simply defines a views filter. When you edit the view, take the following actions:

  • Add the filter by clicking the plus sign in the filter fieldset.
  • Select the "Node: Lucene query" checkbox in the "Page: Add filters" fieldset.
  • Click the "Add" button to apply the filter.

The easiest way to see how this works is to expose the filter. When you expose the filter, a text field should appear above the view so you can drill down the results by lucene query. For example, if your view has three nodes with the titles "One", "Two", and "Three", passing a Lucene query of "title:two" will filter the results down to that one node.

Right now my priority is finishing and documenting Search Lucene API, so this module won't be documented fully or be promoted to a higher development release until those tasks are done.

Thanks again for your feedback and testing,
Chris

Ok. I don't have the views' filter because I'm using Search Lucene API 1.2 -somehow I couldn't install version 2 with release 1 from SourceForge.net. I guess I will have to wait. In any case, it will be great to be able to use solr this way, thanks again,

You are right. This module is for the 2.0 API only and will NOT work with Search Lucene API 1.0. Furthermore, if you want to install the 2.0 dev version of Search Lucene API, you have to get the ZF components built for that version. Please see the bottom of the Search Lucene API project page for details.

Title: How to set it up? » Field missing after upgrade to API 2.2

The field for search is missing after upgrading Search Lucene API from 2.1 to 2.2.

I try to reversed back to old version still same.

When edit back through Views, this message appear: "Error: handler for node > lucene doesn't exist!".

And i can't find Node: Lucene query selection under filter anymore.
