Integrating Solr Banana with Liferay Portal

[akkisabby]

I have developed a Banana Dashboard where in I have a search box to query the dashboard. But I wanted to know, is there a way I can integrate Banana and Liferay in such a way that I have a search box in Liferay Portal, and when I search for something on Liferay , the search query should be consumed by Banana and it should display the corresponding dashboard in Liferay portal itself.

Any inputs will be greatly appreciated.

I'd solve that by writing a portlet for Liferay, or hooking into Liferay's search portlet. I don't see how that use case is achievable without writing a Liferay plugin..
