             Summary: Apache Zeppelin Sandbox Integration  
                 Key: SOLR-15080
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SOLR-15080
             Project: Solr
          Issue Type: New Feature
      Security Level: Public (Default Security Level. Issues are Public)
            Reporter: Jason Gerlowski
            Assignee: Jason Gerlowski


With the steady expansion of Solr's "Math Expression" and "Streaming 
Expression" libraries, Solr has a lot of analytics and data exploration 
capabilities to show off in a "notebook" environment.  Case in point - the 
"Visual Guide to Math Expressions" being worked on in SOLR-13105.  These docs 
make heavy use of screenshots taken from Zeppelin, a popular notebook project 
run by the ASF.  Interested readers are going to want to try their own hand at 
replicating the specific visualizations showed off in those docs, and in using 
Solr's analytics capabilities more broadly.

Zeppelin isn't hard to set up and run, but there are a few steps that might 
deter or thwart unfamiliar users.  I'd love to see Solr make this easier by 
offering some sort of integration point with Zeppelin to get users up and 
running.

I'm still up in the air on what form would be best for such an integration.  
But as a strawman I've attached a patch that creates a "zeppelin" tool for 
"bin/solr".

This tool is in the same spirit as our Solr "examples" in that it sets a user 
up to play with a particular use case without any fuss or configuration on 
their part.  It will install Zeppelin, the "interpreter" needed to talk to 
Solr, and the Zeppelin configs necessary to talk to a Solr local Solr.  It 
contains other commands to start/stop Zeppelin and clean out the Zeppelin 
sandbox, but draws the line there in terms of exposing Zeppelin functionality 
more broadly.
