Example #1 SolrClient::query() example

`<?php
$options = array
(
'hostname' => 'localhost',
'login' => 'username',
'password' => 'password',
'port' => '8983',
);
$client = new SolrClient($options);
$query = new SolrQuery();
$query->setQuery('lucene');
$query->setStart(0);
$query->setRows(50);

$query_response = $client->query($query);
$response = $query_response->getResponse();
print_r($response);
?>`

The above example will output something similar to:
