David Smiley commented on SOLR-18079:
-------------------------------------
This is an important capability/idea that I think deserves peer review before
we expose a Solr implementation detail to a user. And/or we document what Eric
proposes as experimental -- something that works but is subject to change (and
we'd say so in upgrade notes if we do).
[~janhoy], I recall you expressing thoughts on this somewhere (Slack?...
dunno). I recall your idea was a way to say that a configset was "complete" (a
boolean), implying ImplicitPlugins.json isn't loaded? I basically like that
idea. I certainly like it a lot better than exposing ImplicitPlugins.json to
users -- something I've thought of as an internal implementation detail.
A related consideration is... what does "complete" even mean? There are *tons*
of plugins of many types, and ImplicitPlugins.json only has handlers... though
as I look at it, it seems maybe it'd support adding additional plugins but
certainly would *not* block/exclude any of Solr's massive query parser list,
value source list, etc. from being registered.
A related idea I've wanted is the ability for a configset to inherit from
another configset -- SOLR-17816. Depending on how that might be implemented...
one could designate a location that is the "default"/master configSet that
would be "complete". If you want to remove what you don't use, go edit it.
