Mark Miller commented on SOLR-3619: ----------------------------------- To me, which of the 2 config sets is the 'default' is less important than that choosing either as a starting point is as simple as a param change or addition of a param, eg default is schemaless, alternative is -configset fixedschema or whatever. At least until managed and field guessing are fully done (see above outstanding issues). I think it's fairly telling that even our simple example data choked on schemaless and we had to change the data to get it to work. I believe in loose to start and lock it down as you progress, and I'm okay with bringing managed and field guessing front and center as it has improved, but I think the current default config style needs to be just as readily available until 5x or until managed and schemaless are less "work in progress" and fully developed and smooth. It sounds like that is not super far off but that we are not there yet for 4x. Even then, I don't know that I agree field guessing is a good default. If the majority want it, so be it, but the experience needs should be complete before we axe or attic the more complete and documented 'production recommend' configs we effectively default to now. A middle ground compromise might be defaulting to managed schema and just making it simple to add a param to turn on field guessing. Or off field guessing if the argument goes that way. It seems that managed schema should be finished before we default to it though, no? Things like not being able to change the analysis or delete without stopping the service seem like fairly important parts to finish. > Rename 'example' dir to 'server' and pull examples into an 'examples' > directory > ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: SOLR-3619 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SOLR-3619 > Project: Solr > Issue Type: Improvement > Reporter: Mark Miller > Assignee: Timothy Potter > Fix For: 4.9, 5.0 > > Attachments: SOLR-3619.patch, SOLR-3619.patch, managed-schema, > server-name-layout.png, solrconfig.xml > > -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.2#6252) --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: dev-unsubscr...@lucene.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: dev-h...@lucene.apache.org
