Simon Rosenthal commented on SOLR-2664:
---------------------------------------

In working on extending the functionality to SolrJ/CSV/JSON, I've seen some 
shortcomings and ambiguities in the initial API I was working on.

here's a clearer approach:

The anticipated use case would be to disable autocommits temporarily during 
update processing from a content stream (or from a server.add() in solrJ). So 
for /update handlers where a content stream is specified, append the parameter 
&deferAutoCommit=true to the URL. Autocommits will be disabled while the 
content stream is processed, and automatically re-enabled at the end of 
processing (regardless of success or failure). This will also be a recognized 
attribute in an <add> element for solr XML processing.

Additionally, no content stream is specified,  one can specify the single 
operations /update?disableAutoCommit=true and subsequently 
/update/enableAutoCommit=true, in the same way as you can specify commit as the 
only parameter. However  you're on your own if you do the one without the 
other....

SolrJ will have new server#disableAutoCommit and server#enableAutocommit 
methods, and also  add(doc, boolean deferAutoCommit).

> There are occasions when although autocommit is configured, it would be 
> desirable to disable it temporarily - for instance when batch adding/updating 
> a set of documents which should be committed atomically (e.g. a set of price 
> changes).
> The patch adds <disableAutoCommit/> and </enableAutoCommit> commands to 
> XMLUpdateHandler, and also adds a disableAutoCommit=true|false attribute to 
> the <add> element - this will disable autocommit until the terminating </add> 
> at the end of the XML document is reached.
> At present, the autocommit state will not survive a core reload.
> It should be possible to extend this functionality to SolrJ, CSVUpdatehandler 
> ( and JSONUpdateHandler ?)
