Solr¶

Solr is fully configured through the Custom JSON Server Level Configuration. You can define your instances through the solr::instances key.

Warning

Each Solr instance does run within its own Docker container. For persistent data storage, make sure to configure your cores with a dataDir within /var/solr/ as designated in Solr’s default configuration.

Instance Name¶

the name is taken out of the solr::instances hash name (see examples below)
a-z and 0-9 are allowed as instance name
your solr instance is then available under solr-<name>.<fqdn> (example according to minimal example: solr-yourname.server01.example.com)
