As a starting point, i would suggest this patch
http://issues.ez.no/IssueView.php?Id=15222&activeItem=1.
But i think it will only work if there is some kind of relation between your content objects and the data of the other database... On the other hand, and please correct me if i'm wrong, i don't think that eZ Find can index external database if this database is not an ez one. If you see the code at updatesearchindexsolr.php script, you will see that it starts by fetching eZ nodes for get attributes content and send them to the index.
But, if you have something like.
- and ezpublish database with their nodes and objects
- another database
- some kinda relation that tells you that your object_id 1000 needs data from some external dabase, then you can index this data via the above patch. Relating to doc, if you read carrefully, it says
eZ Find can not only search multiple eZ Publish sites, but external sites as well. The search index can be populated with information from all different types of websites using external plugins and XML importers
This is more logical. You can populate data to the index usign a custom php code, or maybe a developed module if your other site is Joomla, Drupal, OpenCMS... whatever. Maybe the title of the article should be changed to avoid confussions... Then, with ezfind you can get those results and know where they came from... Best Regards.
