Timothy Potter updated SOLR-5653:
---------------------------------

    Attachment: SOLR-5655.patch

Doh! Last minute change kabroke a unit test for the stop filter factory ... 
this latest patch fixes that.

> It should be possible to reconfigure Solr plugins' resources and init params 
> without directly editing the serialized schema or {{solrconfig.xml}} (see 
> Hoss's arguments about this in the context of the schema, which also apply to 
> {{solrconfig.xml}}, in the description of SOLR-4658)
> The RESTManager should allow plugins declared in either the schema or in 
> {{solrconfig.xml}} to register one or more REST endpoints, one endpoint per 
> reconfigurable resource, including init params.  To allow for multiple plugin 
> instances, registering plugins will need to provide a handle of some form to 
> distinguish the instances.
> This RESTManager should also be able to create new instances of plugins that 
> it has been configured to allow.  The RESTManager will need its own 
> serialized configuration to remember these plugin declarations.
> Example endpoints:
> * SynonymFilterFactory
> ** init params: {{/solr/collection1/config/syns/myinstance/options}}
> ** synonyms resource: 
> {{/solr/collection1/config/syns/myinstance/synonyms-list}}
> * "/select" request handler
> ** init params: {{/solr/collection1/config/requestHandlers/select/options}}
> We should aim for full CRUD over init params and structured resources.  The 
> plugins will bear responsibility for handling resource modification requests, 
> though we should provide utility methods to make this easy.
> However, since we won't be directly modifying the serialized schema and 
> {{solrconfig.xml}}, anything configured in those two places can't be 
> invalidated by configuration serialized elsewhere.  As a result, it won't be 
> possible to remove plugins declared in the serialized schema or 
> {{solrconfig.xml}}.  Similarly, any init params declared in either place 
> won't be modifiable.  Instead, there should be some form of init param that 
> declares that the plugin is reconfigurable, maybe using something like 
> "managed" - note that request handlers already provide a "handle" - the 
> request handler name - and so don't need that to be separately specified:
> {code:xml}
> <requestHandler name="/select" class="solr.SearchHandler">
>    <managed/>
> </requestHandler>
> {code}
> and in the serialized schema - a handle needs to be specified here:
> {code:xml}
> <fieldType name="text_general" class="solr.TextField" 
> positionIncrementGap="100">
> ...
>   <analyzer type="query">
>     <tokenizer class="solr.StandardTokenizerFactory"/>
>     <filter class="solr.SynonymFilterFactory" managed="english-synonyms"/>
> ...
> {code}
> All of the above examples use the existing plugin factory class names, but 
> we'll have to create new RESTManager-aware classes to handle registration 
> with RESTManager.
> Core/collection reloading should not be performed automatically when a REST 
> API call is made to one of these RESTManager-mediated REST endpoints, since 
> for batched config modifications, that could take way too long.  But maybe 
> reloading could be a query parameter to these REST API calls.
