Jan Høydahl commented on SOLR-5103:
-----------------------------------
bq. So you are trying to eliminate step #3 here. Is that right ?
Not primarily. Your list is over simplified. Today:
# Realize that there is a plugin for what you want to do
# Locate and download that plugin
# Read the docs and find and download any dependencies of the plugin
#* Example: dist/solr-cell-5.0.0.jar is the plugin, and you also have 34
dependency jars from contrib/lib/
# For each jar required (35 in total):
#* {{curl -X POST -H 'Content-Type: application/octet-stream' --data-binary
@filename.jar http://localhost:8983/solr/.system/blob/name }}
# For each collection in the system (that needs the plugin):
#* For each jar that belongs to the "plugin":
#** Put each jar on the "classpath" for the collection
#** {code}
curl http://localhost:8983/solr/collection1/config -H
'Content-type:application/json' -d '{
"add-runtimelib" : {"name": "jarname" , "version":2 },
"update-runtimelib" :{"name": "jarname" ,"version":3},
"delete-runtimelib" :"jarname"
}'
{code}
#** Register the plugin into config or schema or zookeeper or solr.xml
depending on the type, e.g.
#** {code}
{"add-searchcomponent":
"name":"elevator",
"class":"QueryElevationComponent",
"queryFieldType":"string",
"config-file":"elevate.xml"
}
{code}
Not to mention when you want to upgrade the plugin to a newer version, or
uninstall it..
Now compare this to a click in the Admin UI or:
{noformat}
bin/solr installplugin solrcell 5.2.1
bin/solr removeplugin solrcell
bin/solr installplugin solrcell 5.3.0
{noformat}

> I think for 5.0, we should make it easier to add plugins by defining a plugin
> package, ala a Hadoop Job jar, which is a self--contained archive of a plugin
> that can be easily installed (even from the UI!) and configured
> programmatically.
