             Summary: Remove DocConsumer and IndexingChain from Lucene
                 Key: LUCENE-9516
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LUCENE-9516
             Project: Lucene - Core
          Issue Type: Wish
            Reporter: Simon Willnauer


Disclaimer: This is a breaking change!

We allow today to replace the entire indexing chain which is a fundamental part 
of our software. I personally don't know if there are any users of this API. 
but given the complexity I personally don't think we should further support 
this. If you are willing to implement this entire thing yourself I really 
wonder if you are better off building lucene from the source. An option like 
this on IWC might make users look into it while I am convinced they shouldn't. 
It's too complex and nothing is made for reuse down there. I wonder what others 
think but from my perspective it's time to remove it in 9.0
