Gus Heck commented on SOLR-11722: --------------------------------- Possibly. On the flip side we somewhat loose the advertising of the feature in the list of commands. Maybe if there were a full separate section on this feature in the ref guide so that it shows up in the tree/toc stuff, that would compensate. Wouldn't want this to become a "hidden, little known" feature. > 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. Issues are Public) > Components: SolrCloud > Reporter: David Smiley > Assignee: David Smiley > Priority: Major > Fix For: 7.3 > > Attachments: SOLR-11722.patch, SOLR-11722.patch > > > This issue is about creating a single API command to create a "Time Routed > Alias" along with its first collection. 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 (v7.6.3#76005) --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: dev-unsubscr...@lucene.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: dev-h...@lucene.apache.org
