Apache solr and Votingapi

Hi Moshe,

I like the idea, although I'm a little nervous about the indexing volume, especially on a digg type site. I'm concerned in part about running into a "index deficit" where you have more nodes getting updated on average per cron run than nodes indexed during the run...

Is this just worrying about nothing?

I think that the next logical step (and I'd say a more important one) is to provide a boost on the votes field. hopefully something a little more subtle and usable where we derive a "popularity index" based on # of votes AND total rating and let users boost on this.

Best,
Jacob

I'm not sure it's going to be an issue - likely there are only a few nodes that are getting much vote traffic on any given day.

I don't think this will work:

$document->votingapi_result_value = $value;

Is this a float or an int? You should use one of the dynamic fields - call it something like sis_votingapi_result

Moshe and I discussed in IRC - I think this would be good to add to CVS/d.o as a separate project so that he does not need to wait on our review to iterate the code.

Im going to have a need for this so here is my battle plan. Moshe do you mind if I create a D.o Project for it?

Battle plans to extend this
1.) provide facet ranges like dates in Apache Solr module (1-20 votes, 20-40 votes etc...)
2.) Allow for indexing of multiple tags/content types functions
3.) Boosting on all of those
4.) Apache Solr Views support (drupal.org/project/apachesolr_views) for sort handlers

Look at the proposed updates here - including tie range fields http://drupal.org/node/641954

I think they are BC, so i'd like to get them in asap.

After reassessing our orginal IA with actual live data, we have decided to significatlly lower the priority of this feature. I thought orginally that I was going to start on it this week but after this review we have revised our IA and this feature as become significantly lower priority.

So if anyone stumbles on this or decides they want to take it on, don't allow my claim to ownership stop you.

Subscribing.

This is probably more of an Apachesolr Views thing, but at the very least I'd love to allow the relationship for VotingAPI within a View, so that I can create my own views for different sorting options. I don't need facets or anything yet - but right now it's impossible to even add the relationship as a starting point. :(

Adding the 'commonslove' tag per #1710714: Theme the Commons "Like" widget.

Actually adding the tag.

@Scott, @moshe,

I think this code could benefit from some exposure, so I created http://drupal.org/project/apachesolr_votingapi

I've given you both access to the project. I'll be updating the code as I find bugs.

Hi fizk,

Can you give me commit access as well please?

I have already ported moshe's code from #11 to D7/new apachesolr hooks.

The site I did that for is due to launch next week and my intention was to start feeding back the work I did on it to the community in the week after.

@alanmackenzie,

Thanks, I've given you git access. Please create a new branch for your work and create an issue in the issue queue when its ready for me to pull it into the 7.x-1.x branch.

Looks like this materialized into this D7 module... http://drupal.org/project/apachesolr_votingapi

Closing this issue since we have http://drupal.org/project/apachesolr_votingapi

I am using Apache solr search . But I am unable to use voting api functionality on search page items.

Hi,
The ApacheSolr Voting api is not being showed along with my apache solr search results.How can i integrate it with the search results? Can anyone help out with the issue.
