We should stop building "ready to cook" stuff and start making "ready to eat"
stuff if we want to survive in this space.
So. I am starting with the user and ask the question , "how would they use it".
{quote}
I've always had that philosophy and I think the majority of other committers do
also.
Trying to reuse and improve existing APIs before creating new ones, or making
new APIs as generic as possible does not run counter to that (and produces a
better system over the long haul).

I'm going solo. So , there are not many discussions. I would like others to
start discussions in JIRA and I can participate

Another option would have been to do it in a branch first, esp if it's
exploratory.

> 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
