Christos Malliaridis commented on SOLR-15701:
---------------------------------------------
According to CRUD operations, there is no direct map for "clone", and in my
opinion we should avoid multiple terms for creating a new configset. I believe
create is in this case fine, as long as we make it clear that it is create with
params, in this case with a base configset.
By no means I mean what is proposed here is wrong or misleading. I think it
points out exactly what we trying to improve at our REST endpoints too. The
create operation requires a base configset right now which is a bug and should
be fixed. I think that is why create is solrj is just clone. Once fixed, it
will be possible to create a configset from scratch.

> SolrJ ConfigSet API allows users to manage configsets but it's curiously
> incomplete (and somewhat misleading):
> * CREATE action doesn't actually allow users to create a wholly new
> configset, it only allows to copy one of the existing configsets under a new
> name. It should really be renamed to COPY.
> * there's no support for UPLOAD action in the SolrJ API, which is a strange
> omission - there's support for every other action but there's no (easy) way
> to upload a new configset. {{ConfigSetHandler}} supports this action so the
> problem lies only in the missing client classes.
> I'll work on adding support for UPLOAD, but I'm not sure what to do with the
> mis-named CREATE - I'd love to rename it but this would cause back-compat
> issues. Maybe deprecate it, rename it only in 9.0 and keep supporting CREATE
> -> COPY until 9.1 release?
