Shai Erera commented on LUCENE-5376:
------------------------------------

bq. I think we should put it under lucene/demo or lucene/server or something.

I think we should put it under lucene/server. We can have the JIRA search 
example (or a simpler one) under demo if we really want to, but I think a 
LuceneServer is a good component by itself. First, we never know what it will 
turn out into, what APIs will be developed etc. Also, it would be nice to see 
clean examples of distributed search (simple, facet, spatial) as well as 
suggest (maybe even distributed suggest). So +1 for adding it as a new module.

> I think it'd be useful to have a "demo" search server for Lucene.
> Rather than being fully featured, like Solr, it would be minimal, just 
> wrapping the existing Lucene modules to show how you can make use of these 
> features in a server setting.
> The purpose is to demonstrate how one can build a minimal search server on 
> top of APIs like SearchManager, SearcherLifetimeManager, etc.
> This is also useful for finding rough edges / issues in Lucene's APIs that 
> make building a server unnecessarily hard.
> I don't think it should have back compatibility promises (except Lucene's 
> index back compatibility), so it's free to improve as Lucene's APIs change.
> As a starting point, I'll post what I built for the "eating your own dog 
> food" search app for Lucene's & Solr's jira issues 
> http://jirasearch.mikemccandless.com (blog: 
> http://blog.mikemccandless.com/2013/05/eating-dog-food-with-lucene.html ). It 
> uses Netty to expose basic indexing & searching APIs via JSON, but it's very 
> rough (lots nocommits).
