would it make more sense for these cross-platform command-line tools to exec
java to do things like fetch these details & process them? then you can
leverage the cross-platform nature of java to do more heavy lifting and
minimize the worry about quirks in the implementation details of the more
complex script language features.

Great suggestion :-) I've been thinking about contributing the SolrCloudTools
code from the scale-scale-toolkit project (see:
https://github.com/LucidWorks/solr-scale-tk/blob/master/src/main/java/com/lucidworks/SolrCloudTools.java)
to serve just that purpose. Of course we'd need to rename it to SolrTools but
having the full power of Java at our disposal from the start script seems like
a better long-term solution vs. one-offs like what I proposed in this ticket.
The Tools code serves two purposes: 1) a set of built-in tools such as
healthcheck and 2) a framework for building out custom tools that are launched
/ managed in a consistent fashion.

> Key: SOLR-6233
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SOLR-6233
> Project: Solr
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Reporter: Timothy Potter
> Priority: Minor
>
> As part of the start script development work SOLR-3617, example restructuring
> SOLR-3619, and the overall curb appeal work SOLR-4430, I'd like to have an
> option on the SystemInfoHandler that gives a shorter, well formatted JSON
> synopsis of essential information. I know "essential" is vague ;-) but right
> now using curl to http://host:port/solr/admin/info/system?wt=json gives too
> much information when I just want a synopsis of a Solr server.
> Maybe something like &overview=true?
> Result would be:
> {noformat}
> {
> "address": "http://localhost:8983/solr";,
> "mode": "solrcloud",
> "zookeeper": "localhost:2181/foo",
> "uptime": "2 days, 3 hours, 4 minutes, 5 seconds",
> "version": "5.0-SNAPSHOT",
> "status": "healthy",
> "memory": "4.2g of 6g"
> }
> {noformat}
> Now of course, one may argue all this information can be easily parsed from
> the JSON but consider cross-platform command-line tools that don't have
> immediate access to a JSON parser, such as the bin/solr start script.
