: Subject: How to get the solrhome location dynamically Do you really want the Solr Home Dir, or do you want the instanceDir for a specific SolrCore?
If you're using a solr.xml file (ie: one or many cores), you can get hte instanceDir for each core from the CoreAdminHandler -- but it doesn't expost the actual SolrHomeDir where the solr.xml file was found. If you aren't using a solr.xml file (ie: you definitely only have one core) you can get the instance dir from the SystemInfoRequestHandler (/admin/system in the example configs) ... and since you aren't using a solr.xml file, the instance dir is the same as the Solr Home Dir. (Hmmmm... I suppose the CoreAdminHandler should probably expose metadta about the CoreContainer ... anyone want to work up a patch?) -Hoss
