Markus Jelsma commented on SOLR-5091: ------------------------------------- Can you include SOLR-4018 if you're replacing the dispatch filter or i'll have to keep updating it as trunk progresses :) > Clean up Servlets APIs, Kill SolrDispatchFilter, simplify API creation > ---------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: SOLR-5091 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SOLR-5091 > Project: Solr > Issue Type: Improvement > Reporter: Grant Ingersoll > Assignee: Grant Ingersoll > Fix For: 5.0 > > > This is an issue to track a series of sub issues related to deprecated and > crufty Servlet/REST API code. I'll create sub-tasks to manage them. > # Clean up all the old UI stuff (old redirects) > # Kill/Simplify SolrDispatchFilter -- for instance, why not make the user > always have a core name in 5.0? i.e. /collection1 is the default core > ## I'd like to move to just using Guice's servlet extension to do this, > which, I think will also make it easier to run Solr in other containers (i.e. > non-servlet environments) due to the fact that you don't have to tie the > request handling logic specifically to a Servlet. > # Simplify the creation and testing of REST and other APIs via Guice + > Restlet, which I've done on a number of occasions. > ## It might be also possible to move all of the APIs onto Restlet and > maintain back compat through a simple restlet proxy (still exploring this). > This would also have the benefit of abstracting the core request processing > out of the Servlet context and make that an implementation detail. > ## Moving to Guice, IMO, will make it easier to isolate and test individual > components by being able to inject mocks easier. > I am close to a working patch for some of this. I will post incremental > updates/issues as I move forward on this, but I think we should take 5.x as > an opportunity to be more agnostic of container and I believe the approach I > have in mind will do so. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
