Erick Erickson updated SOLR-4910:
---------------------------------
Attachment: SOLR-4910.patch
Latest patch. I threw together a basket of lots and lots of things that could
go in a solr.xml file. Along the way I found out that we weren't persisting a
bunch of things, so I added them. It's possible I got confused about what's
valid in 4.x as opposed to 5.x, so any other eyes would be welcome.
The current state is that we can successfully persist about a zillion things in
the solr.xml file. I still have to write some more tests, particularly around
creating a new core and some more attempts to use system variables and insure
that the original ${} syntax is preserved. Also, renaming cores and insuring
that persistence is correct.
I've also grabbed some other JIRAs that have to do with persisting solr.xml,
please bring to my attention any that aren't already assigned to me.
> solr.xml persistence is completely broken

> I'm working on SOLR-4862 (persisting a created core doesn't preserve some
> values) and at least compared to 4.3 code, persisting to solr.xml is
> completely broken.
> I learned to hate persistence while working on SOLR-4196 & etc. and I'm glad
> it's going away. I frequently got lost in implicit properties (they're easy
> to persist and shouldn't be), what should/shouldn't be persisted (e.g. the
> translated ${var:default} or the original), and it was a monster, so don't
> think I'm nostalgic for the historical behavior.
> Before I dive back in I want to get some idea whether or not the current
> behavior was intentional or not, I don't want to go back into that junk only
> to undo someone else's work.
> Creating a new core (collection2 in my example) with persistence turned on in
> solr.xml for instance changes the original definition for collection1 (stock
> 4.x as of tonight) from this:
> <core name="collection1" instanceDir="collection1" shard="${shard:}"
> collection="${collection:collection1}" config="${solrconfig:solrconfig.xml}"
> schema="${schema:schema.xml}"
> coreNodeName="${coreNodeName:}"/>
> to this:
> <core loadOnStartup="true" shard="${shard:}" instanceDir="collection1/"
> transient="false" name="collection1" dataDir="data/"
> collection="${collection:collection1}">
> <property name="name" value="collection1"/>
> <property name="config" value="solrconfig.xml"/>
> <property name="solr.core.instanceDir" value="solr/collection1/"/>
> <property name="transient" value="false"/>
> <property name="schema" value="schema.xml"/>
> <property name="loadOnStartup" value="true"/>
> <property name="solr.core.schemaName" value="schema.xml"/>
> <property name="solr.core.name" value="collection1"/>
> <property name="solr.core.dataDir" value="data/"/>
> <property name="instanceDir" value="collection1/"/>
> <property name="solr.core.configName" value="solrconfig.xml"/>
> </core>
> So, there are two questions:
> 1> what is correct for 4.x?
> 2> do we care at all about 5.x?
> As much as I hate to say it, I think that we need to go back to the 4.3
> behavior. It might be as simple as not persisting in the <property> tags
> anything already in the original definition. Not quite sure what to put where
> in the newly-created core though, I suspect that the compact <core + attribs>
> would be best (assuming there's no <property> tag already in the definition.
> I really hate the mix of attributes on the <core> tag and <property> tags,
> wish we had one or the other....
