Re: [orion-dev] search API

[John Arthorne <John_Arthorne@xxxxxxxxxx>]

The intent was to directly use the Solr
HTTP syntax rather than invent our own:

http://wiki.apache.org/solr/SolrQuerySyntax
http://wiki.apache.org/solr/CommonQueryParameters

I think we have slightly drifted from
that over time, as we worked around various problems. Overall I like the
idea of sticking with a well known API instead of trying to come up with
a new one.  It's a good question though, and I'll add a note about
it to our documentation. Maybe one thing we can do is document a particular
subset of Solr API that we use because Solr itself is pluggable and very
open-ended. Were you looking to create a new server implementation or just
wanting to call our existing SearchServlet.

I should also mention, there is an API
on the client side that isolates the rest of the client code from knowing
anything specific about Solr/Lucene, and it would be possible to plugin
a new search on the client side that uses a completely different HTTP API
if desired.

I am wondering where to find Orion's search API exposing
Solr queries.
I found the search servlet
http://git.eclipse.org/c/orion/org.eclipse.orion.server.git/tree/bundles/org.eclipse.orion.server.search/src/org/eclipse/orion/internal/server/search/SearchServlet.java
exposing Solr queries but I couldn't find a corresponding
search API entry in the server API http://wiki.eclipse.org/Orion/Server_API

Is this an API already and just the documentation is missing
? 
Or if this is not the case, do you plan to make it a public
API ?
