It's day two at Drupalcon Copenhagan, and Robert Douglass and I presented this afternoon on Apache Solr Search Mastery. While the concepts in this talk apply to the Drupal 6 versions, all the code examples are taken from the Drupal 7 port of the Apache Solr module. Read full article »

Is there a way to get Acquia Hosted Search to index files that I have in my /files directory on my server? This is not about attached files, which works fine, but indexing files that are not attached to a node.

Apache Solr is a powerful and flexible mechanism for performing site search on a Drupal site. Join us as we talk with Robert Douglass about all things Solr in Drupal, including new features and functionality and future development plans. Also, as a bonus, you will hear Robert use the word "de-baconify" in the context of Solr and Drupal.
My site is growing from a specific site to a broad site with content many of the users would want to exclude. An example might be a CMS site that feature drupal, wordpress and joomla - the drupal users most likely wouldn't want wp and joomla plugins coming up in their searches. So - I'd like to create a module that allows for the exclusion of content types in the user profile.
I'm not sure where to start. Can anyone think of something similar I could use as a reference? Maybe a book/video/tutorial that does something similar?

Drupal's file handling capabilities keep getting better. Beyond the core upload module, the filefield module for CCK has enabled us to build sites with all sorts of files; documents, images, music, videos, and so forth. Searching within these docuements, however, has never been a common feature on Drupal sites. Some solutions have existed, particularly for extracting texts from PDFs and common wordprocessing documents. With Apache Solr, the attachments module, and an extension library called Tika, things can be much better. With Tika you can extract texts not only from Microsoft Office, Open Office, and PDF documents, you can also get text and metadata from images, songs, Flash movies and zipped archives. Searching for these texts is done as part of the normal Apache Solr driven site search. Read full article »
