David Smiley commented on SOLR-11722: ------------------------------------- Another Q: in the collections.Commands.json file was it necessary to repeat all the create-collection stuff? I think the maintenance cost of repeating this is way too high. I was thinking of the "collection-create." prefix to collection creation params. I guess it's okay. My idealist self says it should just be "collection." in spite of the awkwardness of having a "collection.collection.configName", and then in some other issue work to fix that poor name. But I admit I don't have the energy to bother with the thankless drudgery of renaming such a commonly used parameter like that. > API to create a Time Routed Alias and first collection > ------------------------------------------------------ > > Key: SOLR-11722 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SOLR-11722 > Project: Solr > Issue Type: Sub-task > Security Level: Public(Default Security Level.

Need to decide what endpoint URL it > is and parameters. > Perhaps in v2 it'd be {{/api/collections?command=create-routed-alias}} or > alternatively piggy-back off of command=create-alias but we add more options, > perhaps with a prefix like "router"? > Inputs: > * alias name > * misc collection creation metadata (e.g. config, numShards, ...) perhaps in > this context with a prefix like "collection." > * metadata for TimeRoutedAliasUpdateProcessor, currently: router.field > * date specifier for first collection; can include "date math". > We'll certainly add more options as future features unfold. > I believe the collection needs to be created first (referring to the alias > name via a core property), and then the alias pointing to it which demands > collections exist first. When figuring the collection name, you'll need to > reference the format in TimeRoutedAliasUpdateProcessor. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.4.14#64029) --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: dev-unsubscr...@lucene.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: dev-h...@lucene.apache.org
