             Summary: Update Ref Guide coverage of schema.xml vs managed-schema
                 Key: SOLR-10817
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SOLR-10817
             Project: Solr
          Issue Type: Improvement
      Security Level: Public (Default Security Level. Issues are Public)
          Components: documentation
            Reporter: Cassandra Targett
            Assignee: Cassandra Targett
             Fix For: master (7.0)


When the managed-schema was made the default, we made mostly only minor changes 
to the Ref Guide to make sure managed-schema was mentioned in the same places 
schema.xml had been mentioned so users didn't get the impression they were 
different files or perhaps had a different structure. At that time, Hoss had 
this to say about it:

{quote}
There are still a TON of references to schema.xml that i did not touch however, 
because they are on pages side by side with explicit & specific examples of 
schema.xml XML declarations (ie: how to define a field, or field type) ... we 
need to holistically decide what we want to do with this
{quote}

What we should do now is revamp the schema coverage throughout the Ref Guide. 
Where appropriate we should add examples of using the Schema API in addition to 
(or instead of) only discussing manual edits. Additionally, we should 
consolidate the pages on Managed Schema, Schemaless mode, schema editing, the 
structure of the file, etc. This info is a bit scattered for something that is 
central to a successful implementation of Solr.
