# Run on the node hosting this pack. Point restic at your repo first:
#   export RESTIC_REPOSITORY="s3:https://<account>.r2.cloudflarestorage.com/<bucket>"
#   export RESTIC_PASSWORD="<repo-password>"
#   export AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID=<key>  AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY=<secret>

rclone (sync to S3/R2)

rclone sync /var/lib/docker/volumes/solr_data/_data backup:<bucket>/solr_data

Paths assume the default Docker volume location (/var/lib/docker/volumes). Restore by stopping the job, restoring files into the same volume, and re-running the pack.

Readme

solr

Apache Solr is a fast, mature open-source search platform built on Apache Lucene. It powers full-text search, hit highlighting, faceted navigation, geospatial search, clustering and rich-document indexing, all administered through a clean web UI and a comprehensive REST API.

This pack runs a single Solr server as a host-networked Nomad service.

Deploy

nomad-pack run solr --registry=nomploy

Open http://<node-ip>:8983/solr/. Create your first core from the UI or:

curl "http://<node-ip>:8983/solr/admin/cores?action=CREATE&name=mycore&configSet=_default"

Configuration

Variable Default Description
image solr:9 Container image (pin a tag in production).
port 8983 Host port for the server / admin UI.
data_volume solr_data Volume for cores and index data (/var/solr).
resources 1000 MHz / 1024 MB CPU and memory for the task.

Cores and index data persist in data_volume. For heavy indexing, raise the memory and consider setting the Solr heap via SOLR_HEAP.
