Description-en: PHP extension for communicating with Apache Solr server
The Apache Solr PHP extension is an extremely fast, light-weight,
feature-rich library that allows PHP applications to communicate
easily and efficiently with Apache Solr server instances using an
object-oriented API.
.
It effectively simplifies the process of interacting
with Apache Solr using PHP and it already comes with built-in
readiness for the latest features.
.
The extension has features such as built-in, serializable query
string builder objects which effectively simplifies the manipulation
of name-value pair request parameters across repeated requests. The
response from the Solr server is also automatically parsed into
native php objects whose properties can be accessed as array keys or
object properties without any additional configuration on the
client-side.
.
Its advanced HTTP client reuses the same connection across multiple
requests and provides built-in support for connecting to Solr servers
secured behind HTTP Authentication or HTTP proxy servers. It is also
able to connect to SSL-enabled containers.
.
PECL Solr 2+ is only compatible with Apache Solr Server 4.0+.
