Jan Høydahl commented on SOLR-13569:
------------------------------------

We need not occupy much vertical screen real-estate for this, just a thin bar. 
Proposed implementation is as follows:

Add an {{environment}} tag to solr.xml which is configured through a system 
property {{solr.environment:}}
{code:java}
<solr>
  <str name="environment">${solr.environment:unknown}</str>
{code}
The config is a string, and there will be a few pre-defined ones:
 * prod: Production, color red
 * stage: Staging environments, color orange
 * test: Test environments (shared), color yellow
 * dev: Development environments, color green
 * unknown: Default, will cause the bar not to display or to be white

I.e. when you deploy a PROD environment you simply add this to solr.in.sh:
{code:java}
SOLR_OPTS="$SOLR_OPTS -Dsolr.environment=prod{code}
The Admin UI will simply parse this value from admin/info/system where the 
sys-props are read, and store the values in browser session-storage where it 
will survive until tab is closed. The value in the session storage will be used 
to select CSS class and text for the top bar.

Further, I imagine an extended format where you can override label and color as 
well, e.g.:
{code:java}
-Dsolr.environment=<prod|stage|test|dev>;color=black;label=Pre-production{code}
Feeback on this plan welcome!

> To guard against accidentally changing the wrong cluster, we should add a 
> visual indication in the Admin UI of whether you currently work with a 
> production environment or not, e.g. a red bar on top with an optional 
> environment label, see sketch. The bar could by default be red for 
> production, yellow for test and green for dev.
