Integrating Lucene

I want to provide a very thorough search mechanism for my app, to search across multiple uploaded documents and document types. I'm considering using Lucene to provide this functionality, with all uploaded files stored in MySQL.

Does anyone have experience in doing this, and if so, could you provide some pointers?

Things I'm interested in are;

How to call Lucene - preferably with as little coding as possible

Integrating the search results into JSC tables

Any general observations - or even better options for search

Thanks in advance
