Lucene integration with SDG

Question

We are looking to use the newly added Lucene feature in Pivotal GemFire 9/Apache Geode.

For this, we would need to know if there are any examples for the Lucene integration with Spring Data GemFire?

Answer 1

My apologies. I have not had a whole lot of time to build more complete examples recently.

Although, I do have documentation on SDG's Pivotal GemFire / Lucene Integration support in the Spring Data GemFire Reference Guide here.

Until more detailed examples are added, you can refer to the SDG test suite for the GemFire / Lucene Integration support, here.

The o.s.d.g.search.lucene.LuceneOperationsIntegrationTests class is perhaps the best place to start.

Pivotal GemFire's documentation on "Apache Lucene Integration" starts here.

There is information on the Apache Geode Wiki here (concerning architecture) and here (new proposal for Lucene text searches on nested objects).

And finally, there was a recent blog post by Pivotal on "Using Pivotal GemFire/Apache Geode with Lucene Indexing for Application UI Typeahead", which uses Spring.

Hopefully this will get you started. Know that more is on its way and contributions are always appreciated.
