Yonik Seeley commented on SOLR-6787:
------------------------------------

bq. These are not really "special" APIs.
I was responding to this:  "APIs need to be created to manage the content of 
that collection"
And I was wondering since binary field and "blob" seem synonymous, why there 
would be a separate/different API to get/set the value of such a field.

bq. All the handlers loaded from .system will be automatically be 
startup="lazy" .

But request handlers are one of the only things that have support for "lazy".
What's the plan to support custom SearchComponents, Update processors, 
QParsers, or ValueSourceParsers (all of those are very common)?

Also, a big question is persistence.  What happens when you add a request 
handler via API, and then the server is bounced?

bq. We are rethinking the way Solr is being used. 

That's great, but please do so in public forums so everyone can participate in 
the discussion.

> A special collection called .system needs to be created by the user to 
> store/manage blobs. The schema/solrconfig of that collection need to be 
> automatically supplied by the system so that there are no errors
> APIs need to be created to manage the content of that collection
> {code}
> #create your .system collection first
> http://localhost:8983/solr/admin/collections?action=CREATE&name=.system&replicationFactor=2
> #The config for this collection is automatically created . numShards for this 
> collection is hardcoded to 1
> #create a new jar or add a new version of a jar
> curl -X POST -H 'Content-Type: application/octet-stream' --data-binary 
> @mycomponent.jar http://localhost:8983/solr/.system/blob/mycomponent
> #  GET on the end point would give a list of jars and other details
> curl http://localhost:8983/solr/.system/blob 
> # GET on the end point with jar name would give  details of various versions 
> of the available jars
> curl http://localhost:8983/solr/.system/blob/mycomponent
> # GET on the end point with jar name and version with a wt=filestream to get 
> the actual file
> curl http://localhost:8983/solr/.system/blob/mycomponent/1?wt=filestream > 
> mycomponent.1.jar
> # GET on the end point with jar name and wt=filestream to get the latest 
> version of the file
> curl http://localhost:8983/solr/.system/blob/mycomponent?wt=filestream > 
> mycomponent.jar
> {code}
> Please note that the jars are never deleted. a new version is added to the 
> system everytime a new jar is posted for the name. You must use the standard 
> delete commands to delete the old entries
