remove legacy forrest site from solr release
--------------------------------------------
Key: SOLR-3183
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SOLR-3183
Project: Solr
Issue Type: Improvement
Reporter: Hoss Man
Priority: Blocker
Fix For: 3.6, 4.0
A broader discussion is taking place on the dev list about how we want to more
forward with dealing with core/solr documentation in a post-forrest world, but
a more immediate concern is while the forrest based docs on the lucene side of
things are already version specific and could be released _now_, the solr
forrest docs are not -- if we attempted to release 3.6 today the solr "docs"
dir would contain a complete copy of the _old_ forrest generated website that
would make no sense to users.
we could just flat out remove the solr forrest docs, but that doesn't really
address the issue of the tutorial. A copy of the tutorial currently exists on
the CMS powered website, but since it's not versioned it won't really help with
the 3.6 vs 4x situation that will arise in the very near future.
My suggestion for the short term is that we do the following on both branches:
* svn mv solr/site/tutorial.html solr/core/src/java/doc-files and then clean it
up to remove all the forrest navigation
* update solr/core/src/java/overview.html to mention and link to the tutorial
* eliminate solr/site and solr/site-src from trunk and branch-3x and adjust the
build.xml as needed
...that would get us into the state where we could release 3.6 at will w/o a
weird documentation cluster fuck, and the contents of
https://lucene.apache.org/solr/tutorial.html could be updated to become a
meta-info page about the tutorial with a link to
http://lucene.apache.org/solr/api/tutorial.html (where we'd have already
updated the javadocs to represent 3.6).
