Spectrum is the server-side support for Search. It is intended to mediate requests to solr and summon as a back-end interface to support library Search.

• spectrum-config

  • Spectrum-config handles individualized configuration of the targets searchable in the front-end. It works a lot like a jello-mold. Pour the user's request into it, get a tasty treat out.

• spectrum-json

  • Spectrum-json handles receiving requests from end-users, applying any global normalization to the request, and passing it to the appropriate configuration to make a search against solr or summon.
  • Spectrum-json also handles things like taking actions on records, and identifying patron affiliation.
