Some Example Use Cases of Webapps using the Hearst Solr API

2 Webapps That Access the New Hearst API

John B. Lowe, jblowe@berkeley.edu

Being a few notes on two webapps that use the new, experimental Solr API in use at Hack The Hearst.

Caveats: 

  • You can get access to these by contacting organizers at HTH (login required, for now)
  • These two apps are quite raw, buggy, likely to change – caveat utilisator!
  • Having said that, suggestions and bug reports are quite welcome
