helios v0.0.5

helios - a nodejs-solr client

Well, this is a little neater version of the already available nodejs-solr clients. I figured out that a lot of problems comes to making queries for getting the results. The powerful thing of this library would be the queryBuilder module.

Download

Releases are available for download from GitHub. Alternatively, you can install using Node Package Manager (npm):

npm install helios

Simple Execution

var helios = require('Helios')
var solr_client = new Helios.client({
  host : 'localhost', // Insert your client host
  port : 8989,
  path : '/solr', // Insert your client solr path
});

var queryBuilder = new Helios.queryBuilder();

solr_client.select(queryBuilder.simpleQuery({
  op : 'OR',
  df : 'field_name',
  q : 'keyword1 keyword2'
}).toString(), function(err, res) {
  if (err) console.log(err);
  console.log(JSON.parse(res)); // yes, it returns in raw format, you need to JSON.parse it
});
