Searchbox is a Search Framework developed under java/spring which enables you as a developer or CIO to easily leverage backend search engines such as Apache Solr, ElasticSearch and Google Site Search in an easy way.
Some of the goals for the project are that it should
- be easy to leverage Apache Solr, ElasticSearch or Google Site Search
- be easy to extend by adding new components or new adapters for search engines
- be flexible
- be user-friendly on all platforms (desktop, tablet and mobile)
- have good code quality (use SonarSource)
- have good documentation
- be the best search engine framework
In order to quickly get started with the framework, you can run it from the command line:
$ git clone git@github.com:searchbox/framework.git
$ cd framework
$ mvn clean package -DskipTests
$ java -jar target/dependency/jetty-runner.jar --port 8080 target/*.warThe Searchbox framework provides an easy way to build a search engine to visualise both structured data and non-structured data

- Finish the framework
- Add new components such as RangeFacet and GeoFacet
- Write the technical documentation
- Build a new website for the open-source project

- SearchAdapterMethod cannot use Collection as arguments (fails in adapterService).
