Apache Solr is a search server application widely in use around the world and LireSolr is the integration project of Lire into this search server. As a last work item of the year, we have updated LireSolr to work with Solr 6.3.0. This also involves the move to Lucene 6.3.0 for LIRE and — for both — Java 8 as minimum SDK version. LireSolr also found a new home on Github: https://github.com/dermotte/liresolr.

There’s detailed documentation on how to set up Solr, how to add a core, how to configure it for the use with LireSolr and there are even indexing tools to get your photos inside Solr. Give it a try at Github!
