David Smiley commented on SOLR-7576:
------------------------------------
bq. we can't keep large amounts of data in ZK
Yes I am aware. I see now why you mention this: it's because the "blob store"
feature is itself a Solr collection and it keeps all versions. I didn't know
that until now (or lapse of memory ;-P); I had guessed (wrongly) it was just a
REST API into ZooKeeper. I think I better understand where you're coming from
now. There are other features like sources for Suggesters that I look forward
to seeing getting upgraded to use the blob store, since it's bad to put large
files in ZooKeeper in your conf dir.
For this specific feature (request handlers in scripting language) why should
the executable be put in the Blob store at all? Generally these scripts are
going to be very small. Instead, why not simply access it via the
SolrResourceLoader abstraction, thus it'll work for stand-alone file-system &
ZooKeeper if SolrCloud (i.e. exactly how the Script URP works)? A REST API on
top could add another convenient access mechanism to "conf" dir stuff --
obviously with access control required by default though disable'able at the
command-line for developers working on scripts locally. AFAIK ZooKeeper
clients (e.g. Solr) can monitor ZK paths for updates; and likewise this is
possible of the file system in modern Java. In summary, what I'm advocating is
that the script be treated like the rest of the configuration for a core, even
though technically it's code not configuration. I don't think that distinction
is pertinent.

> Key: SOLR-7576
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SOLR-7576
> Project: Solr
> Issue Type: New Feature
> Reporter: Noble Paul
> Attachments: SOLR-7576.patch, SOLR-7576.patch
>
>
> Solr now support dynamic loading (SOLR-7073) of components and it is secured
> in SOLR-7126
> We can extend the same functionality with JS as well
> the handler {{/js}} is implicitly registered
> To make this work
> * Solr should be started with {{-Denable.js.loading=true}}
> * The javascript must be loaded to the {{.system}} collection using the blob
> store API
> * Sign the javascript and pass the signature in a param called {{_sig}}
> The {{JSRequestHandler}} is implicitly defined and it can be accessed by
> hitting {{/js/<jsname>/<version>}}
> Steps for developing scripts
> # start the cluster with the {{enable.js.loading}} . If you are starting
> using our script it would be {{bin/solr start -e cloud -a
> "-Denable.js.loading=true"}} . You would not need security during development
> , so don't add the private keys to Solr
> # create {{.system}} collection {{bin/solr create -c .system}}
> # Write your javascript code . (say {{test.js}} )
> # post it to {{.system}} collection . {{curl -X POST -H 'Content-Type:
> application/octet-stream' --data-binary @test.js
> http://localhost:8983/solr/.system/blob/test}}
> # run your script {{http://host:8983/solr/gettingstarted/js/test/1}}
> # Edit your script and repeat from step #4 . Keep in mind that the version
> would be bumped up every time you post a new script . So, the second time the
> url would be {{http://host:8983/solr/gettingstarted/js/test/2}} . So on and
> so forth
> sample programs
> 1) writes a val to output
> {code:javascript}
> //empty line
> $.response().add('testkey','Test Val');
> {code}
> 2) manipulate the output to add an extra field to each doc
> {code}
> //empty line
> var l = [];
> $.query({
> q: '*:*',
> qt: '/select',
> start:0,
> }).forEach('response', function(doc) {
> doc.put('script', 'Added this
> value');
> l.push(doc);
> });
> $.response().add('alldocs', l);
> {code}
> 3) stream through all the docs
> {code:Javascript}
> //empty line
> $.query({
> q: '*:*',
> qt: '/select',
> start:0,
> distrib:'false'
> }).pipe('response', 'docs', function(doc) { // the pipe function is
> executed right before the response writer and right after the transformers
> if('IT'== doc.get('genre_s')) return
> null;
> doc.put('script', 'Added this
> value');
> return doc;
> });
> {code}
