This Drupal module provides search results from Apache SOLR as an RSS feed.
For each custom search page, such as /mysearch/keywords, this module creates a menu hook that inserts
'rss' between the search page path and the keywords, i.e. /mysearch/rss/keywords. The SOLR search
uses the supplied keyword from the URL as well as whatever query parameters are passed to the page.
The feed URL is automatically added to the top of the page as a link tag to allow browsers to
auto-discover the feed. In addition, you can use the apachesolr_rss_feed_url() function to
get the URL to the feed for the current page in order to render your own RSS icon.
The node_feed() function is used to render an RSS feed of all search results. This uses the
built-in RSS display mode for the resulting nodes in order to assemble each RSS item.
You can implement hook_node_view() in order to override the RSS item and modify
the description field or add additional XML tags.
In addition, you can implement hook_apachesolr_rss_channel_alter() to modify properties of the
channel tag itself. For instance, you may wish to include in the feed's description a summary of the
keywords, facets and filters that were applied. Since this happens outside the scope of the apachesolr
module, we leave it to the user to determine how best to format and display these elements.
