  include Solr    # Allow Solr:: to be omitted from class/module references

  # connect to the solr instance
  conn = Connection.new('http://localhost:8983/solr', :autocommit => :on)

  # add a document to the index
  conn.add(:id => 123, :title_text => 'Lucene in Action')

  # update the document
  conn.update(:id => 123, :title_text => 'Solr in Action')

  # print out the first hit in a query for 'action'
  response = conn.query('action')
  print response.hits[0]

  # iterate through all the hits for 'action'
  conn.query('action') do |hit|
    puts hit.inspect
  end

  # delete document by id
