Has anyone configured the Lucene instance used by mojoPortal to use AzureDirectory (https://github.com/richorama/AzureDirectory) so that the index syncs with blob storage? From our past experience, it doesn't seem like there's a way to perform this configuration without forking the MP code that creates the indexing objects, which we don't want to do. We want to use AzureDirectory because our services are distributed (some independent of mojoPortal) and we want to be able to index and search locally, which integrates app data we manage ourselves. We could potentially perform all index searches from an MP instance and expose it via Web service, but that's suboptimal. Another option would be to keep a separate index for our own data that uses AzureDirectory, which is what we'll likely end up doing if there's no way to unify it.
Hi Ed,
We could implement a provider model to allow plugging in different lucene Directory types.
Would you be interested in sponsoring development to make this a development priority? If so contact me privately and we can discuss it.
Best,
Joe
Thanks for following up so quickly. This isn't a big priority for us at this time, so I was just checking to see if anyone had already confirmed it could be done. If things change on our end I will definitely take you up on your offer :-)
