Solr Container

This module helps running solr using Testcontainers.

Note that it's based on the official Docker image.

Usage example

You can start a solr container instance from any Java application by using:

// Create the solr container.
SolrContainer container = new SolrContainer(solrImage);

// Start the container. This step might take some time...
container.start();

// Do whatever you want with the client ...
SolrClient client = new Http2SolrClient.Builder(
    "http://" + container.getHost() + ":" + container.getSolrPort() + "/solr"
)
    .build();
SolrPingResponse response = client.ping("dummy");

// Stop the container.
container.stop();
