Shalin Shekhar Mangar commented on SOLR-4316:
---------------------------------------------
[~steffkes] suggested that we combine the two selection boxes for collection
and local cores into one but group them together just as how the Analysis page
shows a single selection box with field names and field types.
I have gone back and forth on this. It isn't hard to implement because it takes
just a "optgroup" html element to group both types together. But after a lot of
thought I am leaning towards keeping these two separate because:
# Imagine "collection1" which is both a collection as well as a core name. Once
the user has already selected one of them there is no way to indicate what has
been selected (except the fact that different options show depending on what's
selected)
# The Analysis page shows field types and names together but they're also
functionally equivalent with respect to that page. However, different functions
apply on collections and cores.
The cons of having two selection boxes is that it takes more screen space and
we turn on scrolling only when the viewport size is smaller (or it is resized
to be smaller).

> There are a number of sections available when you are looking at a core in
> the UI - Ping, Query, Schema, Config, Replication, Analysis, Schema Browser,
> Plugins / Stats, and Dataimport are the ones that I can see.
> A list of collections should be available, with as many of those options that
> can apply to a collection, If options specific to collections/SolrCloud can
> be implemented, those should be there too.
