Mark Miller commented on SOLR-1306: ----------------------------------- I still don't understand the motivation. You can do the same thing with the on disk auto discover strategy without adding another plugin point to support and complicating this stuff. What does this plugin gain you over the model of just loading cores we find in folders? You can still physically move cores all you want - in fact, it's probably a lot easier. > Support pluggable persistence/loading of solr.xml details > --------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: SOLR-1306 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SOLR-1306 > Project: Solr > Issue Type: New Feature > Components: multicore > Reporter: Noble Paul > Assignee: Erick Erickson > Fix For: 4.1 > > Attachments: SOLR-1306.patch, SOLR-1306.patch, SOLR-1306.patch, > SOLR-1306.patch > > > Persisting and loading details from one xml is fine if the no:of cores are > small and the no:of cores are few/fixed . If there are 10's of thousands of > cores in a single box adding a new core (with persistent=true) becomes very > expensive because every core creation has to write this huge xml. > Moreover , there is a good chance that the file gets corrupted and all the > cores become unusable . In that case I would prefer it to be stored in a > centralized DB which is backed up/replicated and all the information is > available in a centralized location. > We may need to refactor CoreContainer to have a pluggable implementation > which can load/persist the details . The default implementation should > write/read from/to solr.xml . And the class should be pluggable as follows in > solr.xml > {code:xml} > <solr> > <dataProvider class="com.foo.FooDataProvider" attr1="val1" attr2="val2"/> > </solr> > {code} > There will be a new interface (or abstract class ) called SolrDataProvider > which this class must implement -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
