Ismaël Mejía commented on BEAM-3947:
------------------------------------
So far the 'unofficial' policy with different IOs has been to support the
latest LTS/mainstream version. That is the reason we support some relatively
'old' versions of Solr. From looking at the webpage it seems that version 6.x
is still the LTS version. But Tim's argument about Cloudera supporting 7.x now
it is a really good one, so i think we should tackle in that case both 6.x and
7.x. Of course we have ideally to find a way to do this via provided
dependencies or some mechanism like the one that KafkaIO uses to support
multiple versions.
> Add support for Solr 6.x
> ------------------------

> Key: BEAM-3947
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/BEAM-3947
> Project: Beam
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: io-java-solr
> Reporter: Ismaël Mejía
> Priority: Minor
>
> The initial PR on Solr was based on Solr 6.x, however at that time we
> supported Java 7 so Insisted to move it to Solr 5.x (which is Java 7
> compatible). This issue is to add support for multiple versions of Solr
> ideally in a single module.
> Notice that I was able to recover the original code for Solr 6.x created by
> [~caomanhdat] here (there are some differences in the way the Split was
> calculated and maybe some other minor things):(
> [https://github.com/iemejia/beam/blob/recover-solrio/sdks/java/io/solr/pom.xml]
> This issue does not cover support for Solr 7, but if it is possible to add it
> as part of it, it would be great.
