Joel Bernstein commented on SOLR-11766:
---------------------------------------

Ok, based on your comments I think we can make the new streaming expressions 
ref guide work as part of larger ref guide.

I can also get the documentation done quicker and not hold things up. The 
published documentation at this point is mostly function reference, so it's 
mainly been just putting in a few lines about what each function does. I'll 
start making a practice of doing this as I go.

As far as the designs, I didn't like how the sub-sections looked on the left 
hand menu. They just seemed to get lost in all the other categories, require 
scrolling to view and the line wrapping makes it look crowed. Perhaps we can 
figure out another way to display the stream evaluator sub categories.

> There are a very large number of streaming expressions and they need some 
> special info design to be more easily accessible. The current way we're 
> presenting them doesn't really work. This issue is to track ideas and POC 
> patches for possible approaches.
> A couple of ideas I have, which may or may not all work together:
> # Provide a way to filter the list of commands by expression type (would need 
> to figure out the types)
> # Present the available expressions in smaller sections, similar in UX 
> concept to https://redis.io/commands. On that page, I can see 9-12 commands 
> above "the fold" on my laptop screen, as compared to today when I can see 
> only 1 expression at a time & each expression probably takes more space than 
> necessary. This idea would require figuring out where people go when they 
> click a command to get more information.
> ## One solution for where people go is to put all the commands back in one 
> massive page, but this isn't really ideal
> ## Another solution would be to have an individual .adoc file for each 
> expression and present them all individually.
> # Some of the Bootstrap.js options may help - collapsing panels or tabs, if 
> properly designed, may make it easier to see an overview of available 
> expressions and get more information if interested.
> I'll post more ideas as I come up with them.
> These ideas focus on the HTML layout of expressions - ideally we come up with 
> a solution for PDF that's better also, but we are much more limited in what 
> we can do there.
