Erick Erickson commented on SOLR-14115:
---------------------------------------
I won't argue too hard to remove bin/solr, I'm glad people find it useful.
Certainly I've used it to fix up ZK nodes in emergency situations.
If there were a good UI for editing Zookeeper, I'd advocate more strongly to
remove bin/solr, but I don't find one on a quick search. I see several UI
editors, but I don't have any confidence that they'll be maintained long-term.
> Deprecate zkcli and bin/solr zk support

> Key: SOLR-14115
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SOLR-14115
> Project: Solr
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Security Level: Public(Default Security Level. Issues are Public)
> Components: scripts and tools
> Reporter: Erick Erickson
> Priority: Major

> I think it's a valid argument that these have outlived their usefulness and
> we should remove them and have APIs to do what Solr requires. Especially if
> we can find and point to a third-party visual ZK tool for _changing_
> arbitrary data in ZK. Zookeeper 3.5.5 has the admin server which has a UI
> (although I don't see how to change data in ZK with it. Haven't looked very
> much).
> While we're ripping stuff out of Solr, are these candidates? It would break
> my heart to rip ZK support out from bin/solr, but all good things must come
> to an end. Why do we maintain three (zkcli, bin/solr and the APIs) ways of
> doing the same thing?
> Mark put the zkcli stuff in before we had APIs to do what Solr needs to do
> with ZK, mainly uploading configsets at the time. I put the zk support in
> bin/solr also before the APIs existed because I thought having to learn our
> custom wrapper for ZK was yet another orphan bit of code laying around. All
> before we had things like the configsets API.
> Personally, I'd prefer removing zkcli rather than bin/solr, but that's
> because I originated the bin/solr code ;)
> This occurred when reading SOLR-14109, I'm not entirely sure what I _really_
> think about it.
