Well, the mention of DIH is a bit off-topic. I'll simplify and say all
I need is the ability to set ANY variables in solrconfig.xml without
having to make N number of copies of the same configuration to achieve
that. Essentially I need 10+ collections to use the exact same config
dir in Zookeeper with minor/trivial differences set in variables.
Your proposal of taking in values at core creation-time is a neat one
and would be a very flexible solution for a lot of use cases. My only
concern for my really-specific use cae is that I'd be setting DB
user/passwords via plain-text HTTP calls, but having this feature is
better than not.
In a perfect world I'd like to be able to include files in Zookeeper
(like XInclude) that are outside the common config dir (eg:
'/configs/sharedconfig') all the collections would be sharing. On the
other hand, that sort of solution would open up the Zookeeper layout
to arbitrary files and could end up in a nightmare if not done
carefully, however.
Would it be possible for Solr to support specifying multiple configs
at collection creation, that are merged or concatenated. This idea
sounds terrible to me even at this moment, but I wonder if there is
something in there..
