Hi Ayan,
Did you get a chance to create a wiki page for solr embedded to
external
migration ?
We can track the effort in the following jira tak.
Move solr component to Attic
<https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/OFBIZ-13220>
Thanks & Regards

Hi Nicolas,
Thanks for your kind words! I really appreciate your offer to push
it to
the wiki. But, I’d like to take the initiative to add it myself.
I'll make sure to update the wiki soon and will share the link once
it's
live. Please let me know if you have any suggestions or improvements
to
include!

Hello Ayan,
Thanks for this sharing, it's really cool.
I thinks it's a good work to push on the wiki. If you didn't plan it
I
can
do it ?
Like that we start the plugin and jakarta migration :)

Hello All,
I took the liberty of doing a POC to ensure a smooth transition from
embedded Solr to a standalone instance while maintaining data and
configuration integrity, here’s the process to follow:
Before starting, stop Solr to prevent data corruption and file lock
issues.
1.
Copy Configuration
-
Navigate to ${ofbiz.home}/plugins/solr/home/{YourCoreName}
and copy
the core configuration.
-
Paste it into your standalone Solr instance at
solr8.11.3/server/solr/{YourCoreName}.
2.
Copy Data
-
Locate the <dataDir> tag in solrconfig.xml to find the
existing
data
directory.
-
Defaults to -${ofbiz.home}/runtime/indexes/solr/products/
-
Copy its contents and paste them into
solr8.11.3/server/solr/{YourCoreName}/data/.
3.
Update Data Directory
Modify -
solr8.11.3/server/solr/{YourCoreName}/conf/solrconfig.xml
file to
set the data directory to Solr’s default or a custom path: Solr
Default
- <dataDir>${solr.data.dir:}</dataDir> Points to -
solr8.11.3/server/solr/{YourCoreName}/data/. (where we copied the
data) If
you have copied the core data to a custom path then specify
that data
directory
Once these steps are complete, start the standalone Solr instance,
and
your
data should be intact.
Kind regards,

Hi Jacques,
One of the projects I am working on uses solr in the embedded mode,
and
I'll soon be migrating it to an external Solr instance.
I'll document all the important code changes needed, configurations
involved and challenges faced during the process.
I lack knowledge of migration tools, if they're a better solution, I
would
like to proceed that way as well.

Hi Anshul,
I see no problem creating a Confluence page to start. Of course
implementing a migration tool would be better.
Have someone ever done a Solr migration from the plugin to an
external
Solr instance?

Hi Jacques,
A confluence page can serve greatly to users needing migration. The
amount
of detail it would carry is a concern here.
A few things those are completely different in the two are:
1. Core creation process flow
2. Solr deployment process flow
3. Directory locations in both cases
We can start building a confluence page, and then add on to it in
progressive manner.

Hi,
So what do we do?
A Jira should be enough if we plan to implement a migration tool.
That
still needs to be decided and then planned.
If we don't implement a migration tool a Confluence page would fit.
But
would that be enough?
Should we vote about that?

Hello all,
I agree with deprecating embedded Solr and providing a migration
process
for external Solr. This will allow us to move forward with the
Jakarta
migration.

Hi all,
I too support providing a smooth transition for users of embedded
version
to the standalone version, keeping in mind that Jakarta migration
is
important and the lucene may update solr further.
This seems like a good way to deal with it.

I also support the idea of deprecating the embedded mode of

SOLR.
To address Michael's concerns of existing users, we could provide
tools, mechanisms, or guidelines to help streamline the transition
from embedded to external SOLR.

Hi Deepak,
I know that embedded Solr is used so that does not seem to be a

We can update the Solr plugin to connect with an external Solr
instance
instead of running it embedded. I believe no one uses Solr in
embedded
mode
in production,
so it's best to treat Solr as an external system.
With the Solr plugin update, we can configure it to communicate
with
an
external Solr instance.
To make it developer-friendly, we can also provide a Gradle task
to
download and run Solr in the development environment.
