David Smiley commented on SOLR-10272:
-------------------------------------
I understand that bin/solr might default to use a "data driven" config but it's
easy enough to be explicit at the CLI and make another choice. It's very
depressing and sad to me to hear that this very JIRA issue is going to make
that particular configuration so prominent that it's the only one that will be
in Solr by default already there. If users (you, me, us, everyone) are to use
the feature you are working on here -- relying on a config already in Solr --
then what step do we do to turn the data-driven schema aspect of the config
off? Unless I'm doing a demo or POC, I will _always_ be performing this step.
If there is no step (short of outright replacing solrconfig.xml in ZK), then I
feel I need to -1 this change.
> 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.
