Creating Solr plugin
Published:
While trying to implement Solr indexer, I came across problem on how to actually normalize the date format according to Solr format. Surprisingly, this question was asked quite often in Stackoverflow. So, I decided to write a Solr plugin with the hope to solve this problem. However, at the end of the day, it turned out that going this approach does not actually solve my problem due to some Solr's peculiarity. Nonetheless, I hope this writing will help anyone who is trying to develop any Solr plugin as most examples are outdated. I will also explain the reason why it doesn't work (in my case).
