Jason Gerlowski commented on SOLR-14688: ---------------------------------------- I'm also a little surprised to see "userfiles" crop up above. I was actually considering removing "userfiles" for 9.0, since David and some others disliked it and it could probably be replaced by use of the package-management blobstore. Maybe we're talking about different things when we each say "userfiles" though. David and I are talking about an obscure dir that's created on Solr startup and is only used (AFAIK) by the {{cat()}} streaming expression. Is that what you're referring to as well [~noble.paul], or are you just using it as a generic dirname within the package management blob store? If you do mean the {{cat()}}-stream "userfiles" dir, I'm not inherently against that, but I'm still a bit surprised. Right now "userfiles" is created on startup, so it seems less like what you're looking for to handle the prepackaged-plugin usecase here. That's all malleable of course, but it's not what you want ootb at least. > First party package implementation design > ----------------------------------------- > > Key: SOLR-14688 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SOLR-14688 > Project: Solr > Issue Type: Improvement > Reporter: Noble Paul > Priority: Major > Labels: package, packagemanager > > Here's the design document for first party packages: > https://docs.google.com/document/d/1n7gB2JAdZhlJKFrCd4Txcw4HDkdk7hlULyAZBS-wXrE/edit?usp=sharing > Put differently, this is about package-ifying our "contribs". -- This message was sent by Atlassian Jira (v8.3.4#803005)
