https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SOLR-16835 # Description Currently, Solr only offers one "first-party" client, SolrJ, which can only be used within JVM environments. This is obviously limiting for our users. Historically, keeping client bindings in multiple languages up to date has been too daunting for the project to undertake. But now that Solr produces an OpenAPI spec for its upcoming "v2" API, we have the ability to generate client bindings from that for a variety of languages with very little additional maintenance cost. # Solution This PR uses the 'openapi-generator' gradle plugin to create a Python client based on our OpenAPI spec. A few details: - `./gradlew openApiValidate` to generate the OpenAPI spec and ensure it's valid to use for code-generation. - `./gradlew openApiGenerate` to generate the Python client - Generation uses a template that we can modify if we'd like to. (Currently this PR just uses template unmodified.) - Once created, client is available at `solr/core/build/generated/python` and can be installed to the user's Python environment with `python setup.py install --user` - Generated code uses urllib3 to send requests (though that's abstracted away entirely afaict) - The organization (and to an extent, quality) of the generated code depends in part on some OpenAPI annotations that we don't use across-the-board currently. This PR adds those annotations to a few Java classes so the generated client is a little easier to demo. We already have other JIRA tickets for doing this more comprehensively though. See below for a snippet that uses the generated client to create a collection: ``` import solr from solr.api import collection_api from solr.model.create_collection_request_body import CreateCollectionRequestBody configuration = solr.Configuration(host = "http://localhost:8983/api") with solr.ApiClient(configuration) as api_client: api_instance = collection_api.CollectionApi(api_client) create_params = CreateCollectionRequestBody( name = "somecollection", num_shards = 1 ) try: api_response = api_instance.create_collection(create_collection_request_body = create_params) pprint(api_response) except solr.ApiException as e: print("Exception when calling CollectionApi->create_collection: %s\n" % e) ``` # Tests The code-generator has an option to generate tests for the generated client code. I've disabled that currently, trusting the generator to do its thing, but we can enable that if it's something we'd feel more comfortable using. Other than those generated tests, this has mostly been manual testing on my part. # Checklist Please review the following and check all that apply: - [x] I have reviewed the guidelines for [How to Contribute](https://wiki.apache.org/solr/HowToContribute) and my code conforms to the standards described there to the best of my ability. - [x] I have created a Jira issue and added the issue ID to my pull request title. - [x] I have given Solr maintainers [access](https://help.github.com/en/articles/allowing-changes-to-a-pull-request-branch-created-from-a-fork) to contribute to my PR branch.
