salt.modules.solr¶

Apache Solr Salt Module

Author: Jed Glazner Version: 0.2.1 Modified: 12/09/2011

This module uses HTTP requests to talk to the apache solr request handlers to gather information and report errors. Because of this the minion doesn't necessarily need to reside on the actual slave. However if you want to use the signal function the minion must reside on the physical solr host.

This module supports multi-core and standard setups. Certain methods are master/slave specific. Make sure you set the solr.type. If you have questions or want a feature request please ask.

salt.modules.solr.abort_import(handler, host=None, core_name=None, verbose=False)¶

MASTER ONLY Aborts an existing import command to the specified handler. This command can only be run if the minion is configured with solr.type=master

handlerstr

The name of the data import handler.

hoststr (None)

The solr host to query. __opts__['host'] is default.

corestr (None)

The core the handler belongs to.

verboseboolean (False)

Run the command with verbose output.

Return : dict<str,obj>:

{'success':boolean, 'data':dict, 'errors':list, 'warnings':list}

CLI Example:

salt '*' solr.abort_import dataimport None music {'clean':True}

salt.modules.solr.backup(host=None, core_name=None, append_core_to_path=False)¶

Tell solr make a backup. This method can be mis-leading since it uses the backup API. If an error happens during the backup you are not notified. The status: 'OK' in the response simply means that solr received the request successfully.

hoststr (None)

The solr host to query. __opts__['host'] is default.

core_namestr (None)

The name of the solr core if using cores. Leave this blank if you are not using cores or if you want to check all cores.

append_core_to_pathboolean (False)

If True add the name of the core to the backup path. Assumes that minion backup path is not None.

Return : dict<str,obj>:

{'success':boolean, 'data':dict, 'errors':list, 'warnings':list}

CLI Example:

salt '*' solr.backup music

salt.modules.solr.core_status(host=None, core_name=None)¶

CLI Example:

salt '*' solr.core_status None music

salt.modules.solr.delta_import(handler, host=None, core_name=None, options=None, extra=None)¶

The solr host to query. __opts__['host'] is default.

corestr (None)

Return : dict<str,obj>:

{'success':boolean, 'data':dict, 'errors':list, 'warnings':list}

salt.modules.solr.full_import(handler, host=None, core_name=None, options=None, extra=None)¶

The solr host to query. __opts__['host'] is default.

corestr (None)

salt.modules.solr.is_replication_enabled(host=None, core_name=None)¶

salt.modules.solr.lucene_version(core_name=None)¶

Gets the lucene version that solr is using. If you are running a multi-core setup you should specify a core name since all the cores run under the same servlet container, they will all have the same version.

core_namestr (None)

The name of the solr core if using cores. Leave this blank if you are not using cores or if you want to check all cores.

Return: dict<str,obj>:

{'success':boolean, 'data':dict, 'errors':list, 'warnings':list}

salt.modules.solr.match_index_versions(host=None, core_name=None)¶

SLAVE CALL Verifies that the master and the slave versions are in sync by comparing the index version. If you are constantly pushing updates the index the master and slave versions will seldom match. A solution to this is pause indexing every so often to allow the slave to replicate and then call this method before allowing indexing to resume.

hoststr (None)

The solr host to query. __opts__['host'] is default.

core_namestr (None)

The name of the solr core if using cores. Leave this blank if you are not using cores or if you want to check all cores.

Return : dict<str,obj>:

{'success':boolean, 'data':dict, 'errors':list, 'warnings':list}

CLI Example:

salt '*' solr.match_index_versions music

salt.modules.solr.optimize(host=None, core_name=None)¶

Search queries fast, but it is a very expensive operation. The ideal process is to run this with a master/slave configuration. Then you can optimize the master, and push the optimized index to the slaves. If you are running a single solr instance, or if you are going to run this on a slave be aware than search performance will be horrible while this command is being run. Additionally it can take a LONG time to run and your HTTP request may timeout. If that happens adjust your timeout settings.

hoststr (None)

The solr host to query. __opts__['host'] is default.

core_namestr (None)

The name of the solr core if using cores. Leave this blank if you are not using cores or if you want to check all cores.

Return : dict<str,obj>:

{'success':boolean, 'data':dict, 'errors':list, 'warnings':list}

CLI Example:

salt '*' solr.optimize music

salt.modules.solr.ping(host=None, core_name=None)¶

Does a health check on solr, makes sure solr can talk to the indexes.

hoststr (None)

The solr host to query. __opts__['host'] is default.

core_namestr (None)

The name of the solr core if using cores. Leave this blank if you are not using cores or if you want to check all cores.

Return : dict<str,obj>:

{'success':boolean, 'data':dict, 'errors':list, 'warnings':list}

CLI Example:

salt '*' solr.ping music

salt.modules.solr.reload_core(host=None, core_name=None)¶

MULTI-CORE HOSTS ONLY Load a new core from the same configuration as an existing registered core. While the "new" core is initializing, the "old" one will continue to accept requests. Once it has finished, all new request will go to the "new" core, and the "old" core will be unloaded.

hoststr (None)

The solr host to query. __opts__['host'] is default.

core_namestr

The name of the core to reload

Return : dict<str,obj>:

{'success':boolean, 'data':dict, 'errors':list, 'warnings':list}

CLI Example:

salt '*' solr.reload_core None music

Return data is in the following format:

{'success':bool, 'data':dict, 'errors':list, 'warnings':list}

salt.modules.solr.reload_import_config(handler, host=None, core_name=None, verbose=False)¶

MASTER ONLY re-loads the handler config XML file. This command can only be run if the minion is a 'master' type

handlerstr

The name of the data import handler.

hoststr (None)

The solr host to query. __opts__['host'] is default.

corestr (None)

The core the handler belongs to.

verboseboolean (False)

Run the command with verbose output.

Return : dict<str,obj>:

{'success':boolean, 'data':dict, 'errors':list, 'warnings':list}

{'success':boolean, 'data':dict, 'errors':list, 'warnings':list}

CLI Example:

salt '*' solr.replication_details music

salt.modules.solr.set_is_polling(polling, host=None, core_name=None)¶

SLAVE CALL Prevent the slaves from polling the master for updates.

pollingboolean

True will enable polling. False will disable it.

hoststr (None)

The solr host to query. __opts__['host'] is default.

core_namestr (None)

The name of the solr core if using cores. Leave this blank if you are not using cores or if you want to check all cores.

Return : dict<str,obj>:

{'success':boolean, 'data':dict, 'errors':list, 'warnings':list}

CLI Example:

salt '*' solr.set_is_polling False

salt.modules.solr.set_replication_enabled(status, host=None, core_name=None)¶

statusboolean

Sets the replication status to the specified state.

hoststr (None)

The solr host to query. __opts__['host'] is default.

CLI Example:

salt '*' solr.set_replication_enabled false, None, music

salt.modules.solr.signal(signal=None)¶

Signals Apache Solr to start, stop, or restart. Obviously this is only going to work if the minion resides on the solr host. Additionally Solr doesn't ship with an init script so one must be created.

signalstr (None)

The command to pass to the apache solr init valid values are 'start', 'stop', and 'restart'

CLI Example:

salt '*' solr.signal restart

salt.modules.solr.version(core_name=None)¶

Gets the solr version for the core specified. You should specify a core here as all the cores will run under the same servlet container and so will all have the same version.

core_namestr (None)

The name of the solr core if using cores. Leave this blank if you are not using cores or if you want to check all cores.

Return : dict<str,obj>:

{'success':boolean, 'data':dict, 'errors':list, 'warnings':list}
