David Smiley commented on SOLR-11868:
-------------------------------------
Maybe also file an issue to make "id" the only allowed uniqueKey?
If you agree with that, I could imagine a further simplification such that we
could remove uniqueKey from the schema as well. Either you specify "id" or you
don't; no need for more schema elements (complexity).

> Fix For: 8.7

>
> IIUC idField has nothing to do with the <uniqueKey> field. It's really
> the field used to route documents. Agreed, this is often the "id"
> field, but still....
> In fact, over in UpdateReqeust.getRoutes(), it's passed as the "id"
> field to router.getTargetSlice() and just works, even though
> getTargetSlice is clearly designed to route on a field other than the
> <uniqueKey> if we didn't just pass null as the "route" param.
> The confusing bit is that if I have a route field defined for my
> collection and want to use CloudSolrClient I have to figure out that I
> need to use the setIdField method to use that field for routing.
>
> We should deprecate setIdField and refactor how this is used (i.e.
> getRoutes). Need to beef up tests too I suspect.
