This repository allows you to quickly install Apache Solr for Drupal 9 into a Ddev project using just ddev get drud/ddev-drupal9-solr
. It follows the Setting up Solr (single core) - the classic way recipe.
ddev get drud/ddev-drupal9-solr && ddev restart
- You may need to install the relevant Drupal requirements:
ddev composer require drush/drush:* drupal/search_api_solr
- Enable the
search_api_solr
module either using the web interface orddev drush en -y search_api_solr
- Create a search_api server at
admin/config/search/search-api
-> "Add server" - Choose Solr as backend.
- Choose "Standard" as the Solr connector type and configure it:
- Set "Server name" to anything you want. Maybe "ddev-solr-server".
- Set "Backend" to "Solr"
- Set "Solr host" to
solr
. - Set "Solr core" name to "dev".
- Under "Advanced server configuration" set the "solr.install.dir" to
/opt/solr
.
ddev restart
This is the classic Drupal solr:8 recipe used for a long time by Drupal users and compatible with search_api_solr.
- It installs a
.ddev/docker-compose.solr.yaml
using the solr:8 docker image - A standard Drupal 9 solr configuration is included in .ddev/solr/conf
- A .ddev/docker-entrypoint-initdb.d/solr-configupdate.sh is included and mounted into the solr container so that you can change solr config in .ddev/solr/conf with just a
ddev restart
.
- The Solr admin interface will be accessible at:
http://<projectname>.ddev.site:8983/solr/
For example, if the project is namedmyproject
the hostname will be:http://myproject.ddev.site:8983/solr/
. - To access the Solr container from inside the web container use:
http://solr:8983/solr/
- A Solr core is automatically created by default with the name "dev"; it can be accessed (from inside the web container) at the URL:
http://solr:8983/solr/dev
or from the host athttp://<projectname>.ddev.site:8983/solr/#/~cores/dev
. You can obviously create other cores to meet your needs.
- This recipe won't work with versions of solr before solr:8, and Acquia and Pantheon.io hosting require versions from 3 to 7. You'll want to see the contributed recipes for older versions of solr.
