There are no stable releases at this point, so just grab the source from Google code:
svn checkout http://django-solr-search.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/ django-solr-search
This includes the docs, if you just want the solango module use:
svn checkout http://django-solr-search.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/solango solango
As with any module make sure you place it somewhere on your python path or in your app.
Why not name it search or solr or input your suggestion dumbass? Search is out because of the way that solango imports the search documents and Solr didn’t seem right. Djolr was also on the list, but that didn’t sound as cool. So, suck it up and embrace solango.
You will need to add solango to your installed apps.:
INSTALLED_APPS = {
...
'solango',
...
}
solango comes with a few default settings that it needs to run, they are all in solango.settings. To override any of these settings just put it in your settings.py file. Solango looks there first for setting then takes the default.
The backbone. Download it from here: http://www.apache.org/dyn/closer.cgi/lucene/solr/. That’s all you really need right now. The tutorial will get it up and running.
