Noble Paul commented on SOLR-646:
---------------------------------
Henri - your indignation is understandable
We are in a hurry to make the 1.3 release and this is the last man standing. I
also tried to apply the patch but it didn't quite apply on the trunk. With the
trunk code changing in an hourly basis it can be frustrating at times for
contributors submitting patch.
Probably you can submit a modified patch or you can just add whatever is
missing in shalin's patch and we can move forward.

> This patch refers to 'generalized configuration properties' as specified by
> [HossMan|https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SOLR-350?focusedCommentId=12562834#action_12562834]
> This means configuration & schema files can use expression based on
> properties defined in multicore.xml.
> h3. Use cases:
> Share the same schema and/or config file between multiple cores but point to
> different dataDirs using a <dataDir>${core.datadir}</dataDir>
> Change the general layout between data, config & schema directories.
> Define 'installation' wide properties (for replication for instance) in
> multicore.properties (different base/install/data directories on different
> hosts).
> h3. Syntax:
> h4. Defining properties:
> Either in the multicore.properties file (usual property format):
> {code:xml}
> env.value=an installation value
> env.other_value=another installation value
> {code}
> In the multicore.xml:
> {code:xml}
> <multicore'>
> <property name='mp0'>a value</property> <!-- a basic property -->
> <property name='mp1'>${env.value}</property> }<!-- a property whose value
> is an expression -->
> <core name='core_name'>
> <property name='p0'>some value</property>
> <property name='p1'>${mp0}-and some data</property>
> </core>
> </multicore>
> {code}
> h4. Using properties:
> Besides used defined properties, the following core descriptor properties are
> automatically defined in each core context, namely:
> {code}
> solr.core.instanceDir
> solr.core.instancePath
> solr.core.name
> solr.core.configName
> solr.core.schemaName
> {code}
> All properties can be used in any attribute or text node of a solrconfig.xml
> or schema.xml as in:
> {code:xml}
> <dataDir>${core.dataDir}</dataDir>
> {code}
> h4. Technical specifications
> Multicore.xml can define properties at the multicore & each core level.
> Properties defined in the multicore scope can override system properties.
> Properties defined in a core scope can override multicore & system properties.
> Property definitions can use expressions to define their name & value; these
> expressions are evaluated in their outer scope context .
> Multicore serialization keeps properties as written (ie as expressions if
> they were defined so).
> The core descriptor properties are automatically defined in each core
> context, namely:
> solr.core.instanceDir
> solr.core.instancePath
> solr.core.name
> solr.core.configName
> solr.core.schemaName
> h4. Test:
> The following (contrived) multicore.xml:
> {code:xml}
> <multicore adminPath='/admin/multicore' persistent='true'>
> <property name='revision'>33</property> <!-- a basic property -->
> <property name='zero'>0</property> <!-- used to expand the core0 name -->
> <property name='one'>1</property> <!-- used to expand the core1 name -->
> <property name='id_type'>bogus</property> <!-- a bogus type that will be
> overriden -->
> <property name='updateHandler'>bogus</property> <!-- a bogus updateHandler
> that will be overriden -->
> <core name='core${zero}' instanceDir='core0/'> <!-- the name is expanded
> -->
> <property name='id_type'>core${zero}_id</property> <!-- so is a text node
> -->
> <property name='updateHandler'>solr.DirectUpdateHandler2</property> <!--
> a property can be overriden -->
> <property name='revision'>11</property>
> </core>
> <core name='core${one}' instanceDir='core1/'>
> <property name='id_type'>core${one}_id</property>
> <property name='updateHandler'>solr.DirectUpdateHandler2</property>
> <property name='revision'>22</property>
> </core>
> </multicore>
> {code}
> allows this config.xml:
> {code:xml}
> <config>
> <!-- use the defined update handler property -->
> <updateHandler class="${updateHandler}" />
> <requestDispatcher handleSelect="true" >
> <requestParsers enableRemoteStreaming="false"
> multipartUploadLimitInKB="2048" />
> </requestDispatcher>
>
> <requestHandler name="standard" class="solr.StandardRequestHandler"
> default="true" />
> <requestHandler name="/update" class="solr.XmlUpdateRequestHandler" />
> <requestHandler name="/admin/luke"
> class="org.apache.solr.handler.admin.LukeRequestHandler" />
>
> <!-- config for the admin interface -->
> <admin>
> <defaultQuery>solr</defaultQuery>
> <gettableFiles>solrconfig.xml schema.xml admin-extra.html</gettableFiles>
> <pingQuery>
> qt=standard&q=solrpingquery
> </pingQuery>
> </admin>
> </config>
> {code}
> and this schema.xml:
> {code:xml}
> <schema name="example core zero" version="1.1">
> <types>
> <!-- define a type name dynamically -->
> <fieldtype name="${id_type:id_t}" class="solr.StrField"
> sortMissingLast="true" omitNorms="true"/>
> <fieldtype name="string" class="solr.StrField" sortMissingLast="true"
> omitNorms="true"/>
> </types>
> <fields>
> <!-- the type of unique key defined above -->
> <field name="id" type="${id_type:id_t}" indexed="true"
> stored="true" multiValued="false" required="true"/>
> <field name="type" type="string" indexed="true" stored="true"
> multiValued="false" />
> <field name="name" type="string" indexed="true" stored="true"
> multiValued="false" />
> <field name="${solr.core.name:core}" type="string" indexed="true"
> stored="true" multiValued="false" />
> </fields>
> <uniqueKey>id</uniqueKey>
> <defaultSearchField>name</defaultSearchField>
> <solrQueryParser defaultOperator="OR"/>
> </schema>
> {code}
> Allow the trunk test to work.
> h3. Coding notes:
> The code itself refactored some of DOMUtil (the ant based property
> substitution) into one added class (PropertyMap & PropertyMap.Evaluator).
> The PropertyMap are chained (one link chain between core to multicore map);
> those maps are owned by each core's ResourceLoader.
> Config is modified a little to accommodate delaying & specializing property
> expansions.
> Multicore is modified so it properly parses & serializes.
> Tested against the example above.
> Reviews & comments more than welcome.
