David Smiley commented on SOLR-12362:
-------------------------------------
To be clear, this patch thus far seems to be focused on "Solr-Style JSON"
https://lucene.apache.org/solr/guide/7_3/uploading-data-with-index-handlers.html#uploading-data-with-index-handlers
(alas I don't like that name) and not custom JSON. Will this issue address
both or do you think Custom JSON warrants a separate issue?
*For Solr-Style JSON*: Unfortunately the Solr Ref Guide doesn't show the
atomic/partial update syntax. Here's an excerpt:
{code:json}
[{'id':'1', 'val_s':{'add':'foo'}}]
{code}
Assuming that all documents must have the uniqueKey field, I think we can
simply look for the presence of that key in the child JSON object? Technically
uniqueKey is optional but if it's undefined then child documents (and many/most
Solr features) don't work any way. I think it's more complicated to go the
path you did by trying to know the atomic update verbs and other special keys.
There would be issues if someone oddly chooses a uniqueKey matching "value" or
one of these update verbs but that'd be a pretty weird choice. Perhaps long
term Solr ought to lock down "id" for the official uniqueKey as a simplifying
decision.
*For custom JSON*, I think we can explicitly call out these child documents by
having the path show up in the {{split}} param. It seems this is already
supported though we need to retain the semantic key and decide when we add this
semantic key or when not (make anonymous). If we view anonymous children as
old/deprecated to be removed, then we can just have a flag for this, one that
is boolean one way in 7x but the other in master (8x).
