Anurag Sharma commented on SOLR-6478:
-------------------------------------
Proper URL escaping can take care the white spaces and special characters.
Also, since collection name is a folder it is bounded by the rules on
folder/directory name.
Any suggestion on good place to put test cases?
> need docs / tests of the "rules" as far as collection names go

> historically, the rules for "core" names have been vague but implicitly
> defined based on the rule that it had to be a valid directory path name - but
> i don't know that we've ever documented anywhere what the rules are for a
> "collection" name when dealing with the Collections API.
> I haven't had a chance to try this, but i suspect that using the Collections
> API you can create any collection name you want, and the zk/clusterstate.json
> data will all be fine, and you'll then be able to request anything you want
> from that collection as long as you properly URL escape it in your request
> URLs ... but we should have a test that tries to do this, and document any
> actual limitations that pop up and/or fix those limitations so we really can
> have arbitrary collection names.
