Hoss Man created SOLR-4515:
------------------------------
Summary: OpenExchangeRatesOrgProvider needs to require a
ratesFileLocation
Key: SOLR-4515
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SOLR-4515
Project: Solr
Issue Type: Bug
Reporter: Hoss Man
OpenExchangeRatesOrgProvider currently defaults the value of the
"ratesFileLocation" init param to "http://openexchangerates.org/latest.json" --
but that URL currently 301 redirects to a page with the following information...
{panel}
Notice: App ID Required
As per public notices beginning June 2012, an App ID is required to access the
Open Exchange Rates API. It's free for personal use, a bargain for your
business. You can sign up here ยป
{panel}
...so we should update the code to require users to be explicit about their URL
(including APP_ID) or point to a local file. As things stand right now, anyone
who configures this provider w/o explicitly setting ratesFileLocation ges a
clean startup, but anytime they attempt to use the fieldtype to do a conversion
they get an error that "No available conversion rate from USD to USD. Available
rates are []"
