Upayavira created SOLR-4157: ------------------------------- Summary: Migrate Browse functionality to the Admin UI Key: SOLR-4157 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SOLR-4157 Project: Solr Issue Type: Improvement Components: web gui Reporter: Upayavira Attachments: SOLR-4157.patch
The /browse interface is looking old. It also gives the impression that using the VelocityResponseWriter to create HTML is actually a good idea. At the same time, /browse is actually quite useful - it provides easy access to some features such as explains, raw queries, etc, in an easy and usable way. We also have a lovely new admin UI. So, after some thought, it occurred to me that we should migrate the functionality of /browse to the admin UI. At present, in the query pane, we have an 'advanced' query pane (you just enter request parameters) and an advanced results pane (we just show raw XML or JSON, etc). I suggest we add simple versions of each. A simple query pane would give a more conventional search interface for running queries. A simple results pane would give HTML formatted results with features to nicely display hightlighting, explains, etc. To give an idea of what this might look like, I've attached a rudimentary patch that gives an HTML option for wt which formats the query results as (somewhat minimal) HTML. Thoughts welcome. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
