Jan Høydahl commented on SOLR-7405: ----------------------------------- I'm with Yonik here. We're talking about *documentation*, and we can clearly document the content-type requirement for HTTP POST, as well as the simplified way of using cURL. In the very first cURL example in the refguide we can include content-type, but then introduce the shorter notation in an info-box and stick to the short form for the rest of the refguide. > Update ref guide curl examples to eliminate Content-Type > -------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: SOLR-7405 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SOLR-7405 > Project: Solr > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: documentation > Reporter: Hoss Man > Priority: Minor > > SOLR-7217 added a special work arround to solr to autodetect the correct > content-type if the user-agent indicates curl is in use and the content-type > specified is the curl default ("application/x-www-form-urlencoded") > while this is certianly a nice to have convenience for people who forget to > specify a Content-Type when using curl, there was quite a bit of back and > forth on the ref guide TODO page about wether all example curl calls in the > ref guide should explicitly take advantage of this for brevity. > I'm opening this issue in the interest of having a more structured place for > this discussion. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332) --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: dev-unsubscr...@lucene.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: dev-h...@lucene.apache.org
