Erick Erickson commented on SOLR-10272:
---------------------------------------

Not quite sure what you mean by <3>. Change _which_ parts of that script?
> zk upconfig|downconfig?
> create_collection?
> example startup?

I really don't want to remove any of those. I often use the example startup to 
specify a custom configset 'cause it's easy, I don't have to do the separate 
step of uploading a configset.

The first two seem to need to be kept for advanced users.

> Use a default configset and make the configName parameter optional.

> This Jira's motivation is to improve the creating a collection experience 
> better for users.
> To create a collection we need to specify a configName that needs to be 
> present in ZK. When a new user is starting Solr why should he worry about 
> having to know about configsets before he can can create a collection.
> When you create a collection using "bin/solr create" the script uploads a 
> configset and references it. This is great. We should extend this idea to API 
> users as well.
> So here is the rough outline of what I think we can do here:
> 1. When you start solr , the bin script checks to see if 
> "/configs/_baseConfigSet" znode is present . If not it uploads the 
> "basic_configs". 
> We can discuss if its the "basic_configs" or something other default config 
> set. 
> Also we can discuss the name for "/_baseConfigSet". Moving on though
> 2. When a user creates a collection from the API  
> {{admin/collections?action=CREATE&name=gettingstarted}} here is what we do :
> Use https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/solr/ConfigSets+API to copy 
> over the default config set to a configset with the name of the collection 
> specified.
> collection.configName can truly be an optional parameter. If its specified we 
> don't need to do this step.
> 3. Have the bin scripts use this and remove the logic built in there to do 
> the same thing.
