How to delete all documents? about solr-node-client HOT 8 CLOSED

Hi,

Which version of Solr are you using?
And did you create your client correctly? Have look to the definition of the method createClient() here http://lbdremy.github.com/solr-node-client/code/solr.js.html.

from solr-node-client.

I am using Solr4 (beta) and I am creating the client like this (Solr running on localhost with standard port):

var solr = require('solr-client'),
    client = solr.createClient(),
    ...

I am using the same client for .add(...), .createQuery(...) and .search(...) successfully. Only deleting documents makes trouble! I had no problems deleting documents with node-solr on the same installation.

Yes the client is not working well with Solr 4 yet, an issue has been raised #27.
If you run the test suite (without the flag mocked : true, look at test/config.json), you will see that couple of test are failing against a Solr 4 server.
Feel free to send a pull request to fix that.

Any workaround possible i.e. via sending the delete command more directly to the server?

Well the method Client.prototype.update (http://lbdremy.github.com/solr-node-client/code/solr.js.html) is used to do all the POST requests, add, delete, commit ... but the thing is the path is not configurable from there, which is probably the reason it's not working since you get HTTP 404 error, you won't be able to modify the path from any methods available using an instance of Client.

I just tested this : on my current v0.3.x branch versus a solr4 instance and it just passes.
So I guess we can close this off together with the v0.3.x release?

Together with #88 and #27 that would mean we have all outstanding solr4 labeled issues covered in v0.3.x

Ok I suppose yes
