Alexandre Rafalovitch commented on SOLR-3619:
---------------------------------------------

Ok, so what does this mean on the practical level: **create mycollection**. 
Especially for people who are still trying Solr as opposed to doing production 
setup (two different distributions?).

The way ES handles it now is by basically baking in the templates and defaults 
into the core jars. So, the first time you issue a URL against non-existing 
collection, it's created and inherits all the defaults (ids, endpoints, default 
types (including multilngual), etc).

Solr requires everything explicitly. And you cannot expect people to create a 
schema.xml and solrconfig.xml from scratch to get their first collection to 
work. So, **something** has to pre-exist. And that something should be easy to 
run as step 3 (worst case 4). 

If it's not a pre-built collection, then we need some sort of wizard to create 
the directory structure. How do you see that? Maybe with global configsets or 
something similar? I would love that, but I am not sure that starting to talk 
about the wizards in this JIRA is any smarter than rebuilding the whole set of 
examples.
