----------------------------------
hi [~arafalov] I postyed a reply to you , but it got lost
bq.Why do you need a user to create the collection first? Especially since the
config/etc is hardcoded and it needs to be present on every node?
Most users will not use this feature . When it becomes common place we should
create it y default.
bq.Also, if you have heterogeneous environment, the current implementation
would require a union of all blobs, right? As in, every node will need to have
all possible blobs/jars, not just the jars the collections on that node have.
That is not true. The jars are fetched over the http API and used on demand .
It is never fetched from a local collection
bq.Finally, does the .system collection show up on the Admin UI? Are there
implications/restrictions of that?
It is a normal collection where we have a predefined schema/config and it shows
up in the admin UI

> A special collection called .system needs to be created by the user to
> store/manage blobs. The schema/solrconfig of that collection need to be
> automatically supplied by the system so that there are no errors
> APIs need to be created to manage the content of that collection
> {code}
> #create your .system collection first
> http://localhost:8983/solr/admin/collections?action=CREATE&name=.system&replicationFactor=2
> #The config for this collection is automatically created . numShards for this
> collection is hardcoded to 1
> #create a new jar or add a new version of a jar
> curl -X POST -H 'Content-Type: application/octet-stream' --data-binary
> @mycomponent.jar http://localhost:8983/solr/.system/blob/mycomponent
> # GET on the end point would give a list of jars and other details
> curl http://localhost:8983/solr/.system/blob
> # GET on the end point with jar name would give details of various versions
> of the available jars
> curl http://localhost:8983/solr/.system/blob/mycomponent
> # GET on the end point with jar name and version with a wt=filestream to get
> the actual file
> curl http://localhost:8983/solr/.system/blob/mycomponent/1?wt=filestream >
> mycomponent.1.jar
> # GET on the end point with jar name and wt=filestream to get the latest
> version of the file
> curl http://localhost:8983/solr/.system/blob/mycomponent?wt=filestream >
> mycomponent.jar
> {code}
> Please note that the jars are never deleted. a new version is added to the
> system everytime a new jar is posted for the name. You must use the standard
> delete commands to delete the old entries
