Dennis Gove commented on SOLR-7377:
-----------------------------------

Well that makes it much clearer for me. I'm sorry for deleting all the older 
patches. In my reading of the "How to Contribute" I was under the impression 
that uploading a new patch (with same name) would just replace the old one. 
Each time I uploaded a new version I would see the previous one still there and 
figured I'd done something wrong so went ahead and deleted the old version. It 
didn't occur to me that the old versions would still stay there but just be 
greyed out. I won't be deleting the old versions going forward. Thanks for 
clearing that up for me!

The size of the patch is a function of a bit of package refactoring in the 
org.apache.solr.client.solrj.io package. This seems to be resulting in the diff 
showing a bunch of deleted/added files.

> It would be beneficial to add an expression-based interface to Streaming API 
> described in SOLR-7082. Right now that API requires streaming requests to 
> come in from clients as serialized bytecode of the streaming classes. The 
> suggestion here is to support string expressions which describe the streaming 
> operations the client wishes to perform. 
> {code:java}
> search(collection1, q=*:*, fl="id,fieldA,fieldB", sort="fieldA asc")
> {code}
> With this syntax in mind, one can now express arbitrarily complex stream 
> queries with a single string.
> {code:java}
> // merge two distinct searches together on common fields
> merge(
>   search(collection1, q="id:(0 3 4)", fl="id,a_s,a_i,a_f", sort="a_f asc, a_s 
> asc"),
>   search(collection2, q="id:(1 2)", fl="id,a_s,a_i,a_f", sort="a_f asc, a_s 
> asc"),
>   on="a_f asc, a_s asc")
> // find top 20 unique records of a search
> top(
>   n=20,
>   unique(
>     search(collection1, q=*:*, fl="id,a_s,a_i,a_f", sort="a_f desc"),
>     over="a_f desc"),
>   sort="a_f desc")
> {code}
> The syntax would support
> 1. Configurable expression names (eg. via solrconfig.xml one can map "unique" 
> to a class implementing a Unique stream class) This allows users to build 
> their own streams and use as they wish.
> 2. Named parameters (of both simple and expression types)
> 3. Unnamed, type-matched parameters (to support requiring N streams as 
> arguments to another stream)
> 4. Positional parameters
> The main goal here is to make streaming as accessible as possible and define 
> a syntax for running complex queries across large distributed systems.
