ConfigSets

Config Sets are groups of configuration file that can be used when creating new solr cores. Apache solr 5.X comes with a set of three preconfigured Config Sets. The Config Sets are located in the configsets directory located in SOLR_HOME(server/solr by default). The full default path is server/solr/config.

basic_configs - minimum configurations that are required for creating a solr core.
data_driven_schema_configs - configured to create schemaless cores. It supports managed schema via field guessing.
sample_techproducts_configs: this is a more advanced configuration with many off the optional features enabled.all

Create Solr Core Using Config Set

Syntax:

./bin/solr create -c <corename> -d <configdir_or_set> -p <port>

Example:

./bin/solr create -c mybasiccore -d basic_configs -p 8983

Create The Plugin Folder and Files

Add Custom Formatter To Dropdown Format

The Format plugin provides the ability to add block-level text formatting to your document. This module is already included in the standard build. When enabled, it introduces the Paragraph Format toolbar button that applies these text formats. The formats work on block level which means that you do not need to select any text in order to apply them and entire blocks will be affected by your choice.

Dialog Field Elements

The Create Dialog Plugin article describes how to create a plugin that uses a dialog box.

This article builds upon the Create Dialog Plugin article. The aim of this article is to list out the built in elements that can be used on the dialog page.

HTML Element

The html type allows us to place text/html on the dialog page.

{
  type : 'html',
  html : 'This dialog window lets you create simple links for your website.'
}

Create CKeditor Plugin

Folder Structure

Before we can create a plugin, we must first understand the folder structure of a plugin.

mypluginname/ - this folder name is also the name of your plugin
- icons/
  - mypluginname.png - (16x16 png image)
  - hidpi/ - higher resolution for hi-density displays
    - mypluginname.png - (32x32 png image)
- plugin.js - ckeditor expects to find a plugin.js file

Register Your Plugin

In order to make CKEditor aware of your plugin the add method of CKeditor.plugin is used to register your plugin.
The plugin definition is configuration object who's properties and methods can be seen here.

CKEDITOR.plugins.add( 'sample', { ... plugin definition ... } );

plugin.js Source Code
plugin.js is the heart of your plugin. It contains the javascript code for the plugin.

CKEDITOR.plugins.add( 'mypluginname', {
    icons: 'mypluginname',
    init: function( editor ) {
        //Plugin logic goes here.
    }
});

Analyzers,Tokenizers,Filters In Apache Solr

Full List Of Tokenizer

The full list of tokenizers can be found here https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/solr/Tokenizers.

For a complete explanation of these 3 key term see the solr documentation Analyzers, Tokenizers, and Filters

Field Data Storage

STORE FIELD DATA

Next we can define the columns that we'll use to store our data. This information will be defined in the .install file for the module.

In order to define the database column we'll need to implement the hook_field_schema()

Setting Up A Git Server

CREATE A USER FOR GIT

sudo adduser git

ADD KEY TO ALLOW PASSWORDLESS AUTHENTICATION

sudo su - git
mkdir .ssh
#assuming the public key was uploaded to /temp/ryan_key.pub
cat /tmp/ryan_key.pub >> ~/.ssh/authorized_keys

SET UP AN EMPTY REPO

sudo mkdir /opt/git
sudo chown git:git /opt/git 
mkdir /opt/git/project.git
sudo chown git:git /opt/git/project.git
cd /opt/git/project.git
git --bare init
