# Welcome to the Apache Solr project!
-----------------------------------

Solr is the blazing-fast, open source, multi-modal search platform built on [Apache Lucene](https://lucene.apache.org/).
It powers full-text, vector, and geospatial search at many of the world's largest organizations.

[![Build Status](https://ci-builds.apache.org/job/Solr/job/Solr-Artifacts-main/badge/icon?subject=Solr%20Artifacts)](https://ci-builds.apache.org/job/Solr/job/Solr-Artifacts-main/)
[![Build Status](https://ci-builds.apache.org/job/Solr/job/Solr-Lint-main/badge/icon?subject=Solr%20Lint)](https://ci-builds.apache.org/job/Solr/job/Solr-Lint-main/)

For a complete description of the Solr project, team composition, source
code repositories, and other details, please see the Solr web site at

## Download

Downloads for Apache Solr distributions are available at https://solr.apache.org/downloads.html.

## Running Solr

### Installing Solr

The Reference Guide contains an entire [Deployment Guide](https://solr.apache.org/guide/solr/latest/deployment-guide/system-requirements.html) to walk you through installing Solr.

### Running Solr in Docker

You can run Solr in Docker via the [official image](https://hub.docker.com/_/solr).
Learn more about [Solr in Docker](https://solr.apache.org/guide/solr/latest/deployment-guide/solr-in-docker.html)

### Running Solr on Kubernetes

Solr has official support for running on Kubernetes, in the official Docker image.
Please refer to the [Solr Operator](https://solr.apache.org/operator) home for details, tutorials and instructions.

## How to Use

Solr includes a few examples to help you get started. To run a specific example, enter:

```
  bin/solr start -e <EXAMPLE> where <EXAMPLE> is one of:
    cloud:         SolrCloud example
    techproducts:  Comprehensive example illustrating many of Solr's core capabilities
    schemaless:    Schema-less example (schema is inferred from data during indexing)
    films:         Example of starting with _default configset and adding explicit fields dynamically    
```

For instance, if you want to run the techproducts example, enter:

```
  bin/solr start -e techproducts
```

## Developer Documentation

Learn more about developing Solr by reading through the developer docs in [./dev-docs](./dev-docs) source tree or building Solr from source in [./dev-docs/solr-source-code.adoc](./dev-docs/solr-source-code.adoc)

### Quickstart

Solr uses [Gradle](https://gradle.org/) for its build system. Here are some useful hints to build and run Solr locally:

- To build a Solr dev distribution:

```
./gradlew dev
```

- To run the Solr dev distribution locally:

```
cd ./solr/packaging/build/dev
bin/solr start
```

- Open a web browser and go to http://localhost:8983/solr/ to access the Solr Admin interface. You can also use the `bin/solr` script to create and manage Solr collections. For example use the `bin/solr post` tool to index some sample data.
