Java, Lucene : Set lock timeout for IndexWriter in Java.

I am working on integrating Lucene with our Spring-MVC based application. Currently we have it working, but rarely we get a cannot obtain lock error. After which I have to manually delete the lock file and then it works normally.

How can I set a timeout for Locking the index in Java? I don't have any XML configuration for Lucene. I added the project library in maven via POM.xml and instantiated the required classes.

Code :

public void saveIndexes(String text, String tagFileName, String filePath, long groupId, boolean type, int objectId) {
        try {
            // path is the indexing directory. 
            File testDir;
            Path suggestionsPath;
            Directory suggestionsDir;

            Path phraseSuggestPath;
            Directory phraseSuggestDir;

            Directory directory = org.apache.lucene.store.FSDirectory.open(path);
            IndexWriterConfig config = new IndexWriterConfig(new SimpleAnalyzer());
            IndexWriter indexWriter = new IndexWriter(directory, config);

            org.apache.lucene.document.Document doc = new org.apache.lucene.document.Document();
            if (filePath != null) {
                File file = new File(filePath); // current directory
                doc.add(new TextField("path", file.getPath(), Field.Store.YES));
            }
            doc.add(new StringField("id", String.valueOf(objectId), Field.Store.YES));
            //  doc.add(new TextField("id",String.valueOf(objectId),Field.Store.YES));
            if (text == null) {
                if (filePath != null) {
                    FileInputStream is = new FileInputStream(filePath);
                    BufferedReader reader = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(is));
                    StringBuilder stringBuffer = new StringBuilder();
                    String line;
                    while ((line = reader.readLine()) != null) {
                        stringBuffer.append(line).append("\n");
                    }
                    stringBuffer.append("\n").append(tagFileName);
                    reader.close();
                    doc.add(new TextField("contents", stringBuffer.toString(), Field.Store.YES));
                }
            } else {

                FieldType fieldType = new FieldType(TextField.TYPE_STORED);
                fieldType.setTokenized(false);
                doc.add(new Field("contents", text+"\n"+tagFileName, fieldType));
            }
            indexWriter.addDocument(doc);
            indexWriter.commit();
            indexWriter.flush();
            indexWriter.close();
            directory.close();

            StandardAnalyzer analyzer = new StandardAnalyzer();
            AnalyzingInfixSuggester wordSuggester = new AnalyzingInfixSuggester(suggestionsDir, analyzer);

            ArrayList<String> words = new ArrayList<>();
            if (text != null) {
                text = html2text(text);
                Pattern pt = Pattern.compile("[^\\w\\s]");
                Matcher match = pt.matcher(text);
                while (match.find()) {
                    String s = match.group();
                    text = text.replaceAll("\\" + s, "");
                }

                if (text.contains(" ")) {
                    Collections.addAll(words, text.split(" "));

                } else {
                    words.add(text);
                }
                SuggestionIterator suggestionIterator = new SuggestionIterator(words.iterator());
                wordSuggester.build(suggestionIterator);
                wordSuggester.close();
                suggestionsDir.close();
            }

            AnalyzingInfixSuggester phraseSuggester = new AnalyzingInfixSuggester(phraseSuggestDir, analyzer);
            if (text != null) {
                text = html2text(text);
                ArrayList<String> phrases = new ArrayList<>();
                phrases.add(text);
                SuggestionIterator suggestionIterator = new SuggestionIterator(phrases.iterator());
                phraseSuggester.build(suggestionIterator);
                phraseSuggester.close();
                phraseSuggestDir.close();
            }

        } catch (Exception ignored) {
        }
    }

Thank you.
