Solr Schema Editor

Solr is one of the most well-known search engines and it heavily relies on XML files that include all the important details.

Solr Schema Editor is a straightforward and user-friendly piece of software that aims to make it as easy as possible for you to create or edit existing XML schemas for your Apache Solr server.

Upon launching the software solution, you are met by a simplistic main window that provides you with quick access to all important features. The interface is not modern, but it is both pragmatic and efficient, exactly as you would expect from an application of this sort.

Subsequent to creating or opening any XML file, you can easily view the containing schemas, comments, fields, dynamic fields and field types. You can take advantage of the tabbed panel and edit the details of your XML files, as well as view their original or working schemas.

The workflow is so straightforward that you only need to right-click any schema in order to add new fields, copy fields, dynamic fields or new field types. You can also easily edit details such as name and type or parameters like 'indexed', 'stored' and 'compressed'.

Unfortunately, because the app has been discontinued a while back, you cannot rely on its documentation. This means that, if you do happen to encounter any problems, you probably need to fix them yourself.

In terms of options or customization features, you should not expect a great deal. The only extra function that Solr Schema Editor offers you is the feature for checking the schema files right from its start-up.

Taking all things into careful consideration, Solr Schema Editor is an efficient software solution for creating, managing and editing XML schema files for any Apache Solr server. The app comes with a straightforward workflow that makes it well suited for all categories of users.
