For http://squirrel-sql.sourceforge.net[SQuirreL SQL], you will need to create a new driver for Solr. This will add several SolrJ client .jars to the SQuirreL SQL classpath. The files required are:
* all .jars found in `$SOLR_HOME/dist/solrj-libs`
* the SolrJ .jar found at `$SOLR_HOME/dist/solr-solrj-<version>.jar`
Once the driver has been created, you can create a connection to Solr with the connection string format outlined in the generic section and use the editor to issue queries.
== Add Solr JDBC Driver
=== Open Drivers

=== Add Driver

=== Name the Driver
Provide a name for the driver, and provide the URL format: `jdbc:solr://<zk_connection_string>/?collection=<collection>`. Do not fill in values for the variables "```zk_connection_string```" and "```collection```", those will be defined later when the connection to Solr is configured.

=== Add the Solr JDBC driver class name
After adding the .jars, you will need to additionally define the Class Name `org.apache.solr.client.solrj.io.sql.DriverImpl`.

== Create an Alias
To define a JDBC connection, you must define an alias.
=== Open Aliases

=== Add an Alias

=== Configure the Alias

=== Connect to the Alias

== Querying
Once you've successfully connected to Solr, you can use the SQL interface to enter queries and work with data.
