This is an implementation of an adapter service that allows Quepid to communicate with Solr instances through middleware search API services.
This project allows you to perform human judgments of search results when your backend instance of Solr is accessed through an API that abstracts and controls the search queries and results. The adapter works by emulating the Solr search API in front of the middleware search service. This makes Quepid think it is talking directly to Solr and enables the use of Quepid.
git clone https://github.com/gettyimages/quepid-adapter.git
cd quepid-adapter
mvn clean install
mvn spring-boot:runAfter compiling you can also just run the jar file:
java -jar ./quepid-adapter-service/target/quepid-adapter.jarThis will start the adapter on port 8080 (unless the port has been changed in the application.properties).
You can now add a new case to Quepid by using http://localhost:8080/search as the Solr endpoint. The following Quepid operations are supported:
- Search
- Snapshot comparison
- Getting individual document details
Because all middleware search services are propietary and different, a custom implementation is required for each one. Look at the quepid-adapter-uspto project for an example implementation that uses the USPTO search API.
To make this project work with your middleware API service, simply copy the quepid-adapter-uspto project, modify the API definitions, and modify how the middleware search responses get converted to Solr documents. You will likely need to do this for two functions - one to perform the search and another get a single document by some unique identifier.
