---------------------------------

             Summary: Add a Run or Execute command to the shell
                 Key: BLUR-304
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/BLUR-304
             Project: Apache Blur
          Issue Type: New Feature
            Reporter: Tim Williams
            Priority: Minor


It'd be helpful to be able to execute a query from a file in the shell.  For 
example:
run mytable /path/to/query.json

I think we could also provide a simple utility that does the writing, to make 
it easy to write to a logger... e.g. 
QueryWriter.toJsonString(BlurQuery q) {
  ... 
  TProtocol p = new TJSONProtocol(new TIOStreamTransport(...));
  q.write(p);
  ... 
}

Then the shell can just inflate the object and run the query, e.g. 
  BIS in = new BufferedInputStream(new FIS(query.json));
  TProtocol p = new TJSONProtocol(new TIOStreamTransport(in));
  TBase<BlurQuery, BlurQuery._Fields> tbase = new BlurQuery();
  tbase.read(p);

It'd be helpful for debugging large queries with unique characteristics (e.g. 
loads of facets).
