Jan Høydahl commented on SOLR-13122:
------------------------------------
I plan to pick this up. Here's my plan
# Query if there are any aliases, if so, list them *on top* of the collections
dropdown, with a horizontal bar delimiting collections
# When an alias is selected, only show the menu options "Query" and"Stream".
Questions
* Is it so now that every collection created now has an alias with the same
name pointing to it? If so, perhaps skip these aliases in the list?
* Would the schema endpoint work for aliases? Other endpoints that make sense
to show for aliases?
* Should we make any special treatment of an alias X that point to exactly one
collection Y? Versus those that point to multiple collections? For clarity I
think treating all aliases the same and not trying to be smart routing some
requests to the alias and some to the underlying collection is the best choice.
* Other input before I throw up the first patch?

> Project: Solr
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: Admin UI
> Reporter: mosh
> Assignee: Jan Høydahl
> Priority: Major
> Labels: UI
>
> After having recently toyed with Time Routed Alias in SolrCloud,
> we have noticed there is no way to query an alias from the admin UI,
> since the combo box only contains the current collection in the cluster.
> Solr Admin UI ought to have a way to query these aliases, for better
> convenience.
