Ramkumar Aiyengar commented on SOLR-8029:
-----------------------------------------
Right, my point was to see if we can use it beyond just being a doc, and use it
to format the response. The {{wt}} param will still drive the encoding/decoding
(i.e. json/xml/hocon whatever..), but instead of all APIs just populating and
serializing a generic NamedList, it would help to make sure what the APIs
return conform to the doc we make available. That way, something like Avro for
example, can use the doc as configuration to encode/decode it's data.
> Modernize and standardize Solr APIs

> Key: SOLR-8029
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SOLR-8029
> Project: Solr
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Affects Versions: 6.0
> Reporter: Noble Paul
> Assignee: Noble Paul
> Labels: API, EaseOfUse
> Fix For: 6.0
>
>
> Solr APIs have organically evolved and they are sometimes inconsistent with
> each other or not in sync with the widely followed conventions of HTTP
> protocol. Trying to make incremental changes to make them modern is like
> applying band-aid. So, we have done a complete rethink of what the APIs
> should be. The most notable aspects of the API are as follows:
> The new set of APIs will be placed under a new path {{/solr2}}. The legacy
> APIs will continue to work under the {{/solr}} path as they used to and they
> will be eventually deprecated.
> There are 3 types of requests in the new API
> * {{/solr2/<collection-name>/*}} : Operations on specific collections
> * {{/solr2/_cluster/*}} : Cluster-wide operations which are not specific to
> any collections.
> * {{/solr2/_node/*}} : Operations on the node receiving the request. This is
> the counter part of the core admin API
> This will be released as part of a major release. Check the link given below
> for the full specification. Your comments are welcome
