Alchemy Chat Plugin For SDL WEB

This plugin is used to communicate with all CMS user as in group or one to one chat.I have used JQuery,WEB API and SOLR to store all the chat data.
By default it will load top 100 messages based on datetime in your chat window for both group and one to one chat,with the help of this plugin we can easily communicate with all CMS users without any problem,most of the time we face this problem when our client or editors are only accessible via emails not on chat.

To use this plugin we need to install SOLR

1. Download SOLR here .I have used SOLR version 6.5
2. Create core in SOLR
3. Update managed-Schema.xml and add following fields.
4. Re-Start :- solr start -p <portNumber>
5. Chat Plugin will load all the CMS users using coreservice.
6. In the group window your message will be visible to all CMS users.
7. In One2One only the participates. 

<field name="id" type="string" indexed="true" stored="true" required="true" multiValued="false" />
<field name="Message" type="text_general" indexed="true" stored="true" required="false" multiValued="false" />
<field name="MessageId" type="string" indexed="true" stored="true" required="false" multiValued="false" />
<field name="User" type="text_general" indexed="true" stored="true" required="false" multiValued="false" />
<field name="TimeStamp" type="string" indexed="true" stored="true" required="false" multiValued="false" />
<field name="isPrivateChat" type="string" indexed="true" stored="true" required="false" multiValued="false" />
<field name="chatWith" type="string" indexed="true" stored="true" required="false" multiValued="false" />
<field name="privateChatID" type="string" indexed="true" stored="true" required="false" multiValued="true" />

Once all this is done install the plugin and start chatting with all the CMS users,or you can chat with any user one to one.
