David Smiley commented on SOLR-11722:
-------------------------------------
In retrospect... I wonder if it would make the overall API less busy if
create-alias had these options instead of creating a new API command? We
already have it combined at the CreateAliasCmd level. When it comes time to
delete the whole thing, again, we just add logic to delete underlying
collections to the existing alias deletion.

> This issue is about creating a single API command to create a "Time Routed
> Alias" along with its first collection. Need to decide what endpoint URL it
> is and parameters.
> Perhaps in v2 it'd be {{/api/collections?command=create-routed-alias}} or
> alternatively piggy-back off of command=create-alias but we add more options,
> perhaps with a prefix like "router"?
> Inputs:
> * alias name
> * misc collection creation metadata (e.g. config, numShards, ...) perhaps in
> this context with a prefix like "collection."
> * metadata for TimeRoutedAliasUpdateProcessor, currently: router.field
> * date specifier for first collection; can include "date math".
> We'll certainly add more options as future features unfold.
> I believe the collection needs to be created first (referring to the alias
> name via a core property), and then the alias pointing to it which demands
> collections exist first. When figuring the collection name, you'll need to
> reference the format in TimeRoutedAliasUpdateProcessor.
