David Smiley commented on SOLR-11722:
-------------------------------------
Another Q: in the collections.Commands.json file was it necessary to repeat all
the create-collection stuff? I think the maintenance cost of repeating this is
way too high.
I was thinking of the "collection-create." prefix to collection creation
params. I guess it's okay. My idealist self says it should just be
"collection." in spite of the awkwardness of having a
"collection.collection.configName", and then in some other issue work to fix
that poor name. But I admit I don't have the energy to bother with the
thankless drudgery of renaming such a commonly used parameter like that.

> This issue is about creating a single API command to create a "Time Routed
> Alias" along with its first collection. Need to decide what endpoint URL it
> is and parameters.
> Perhaps in v2 it'd be {{/api/collections?command=create-routed-alias}} or
> alternatively piggy-back off of command=create-alias but we add more options,
> perhaps with a prefix like "router"?
> Inputs:
> * alias name
> * misc collection creation metadata (e.g. config, numShards, ...) perhaps in
> this context with a prefix like "collection."
> * metadata for TimeRoutedAliasUpdateProcessor, currently: router.field
> * date specifier for first collection; can include "date math".
> We'll certainly add more options as future features unfold.
> I believe the collection needs to be created first (referring to the alias
> name via a core property), and then the alias pointing to it which demands
> collections exist first. When figuring the collection name, you'll need to
> reference the format in TimeRoutedAliasUpdateProcessor.
