The Admin UI does and it uses Javascript. So you know it is possible. Admin UI uses Luke for technical-level info: http://localhost:8983/solr/techproducts/admin/luke You can use Schema API for slightly better one: http://localhost:8983/solr/techproducts/schema You can also use Schema API to get just one field's info too: http://localhost:8983/solr/techproducts/schema/fields/text
