Hello everyone, I am a new adopter of Solr and I am working on a Kubernetes cluster setup where I run a helm chart for installing and configuring multiple components of a backend, including Apache Kafka, Flink and Solr.
Most components come with their own operator and CRDs which I install with a script and then add resources via a custom helm chart and the provided operator CRDs. For Solr I decided to use the Solr operator and use the SolrCloud CRD in my helm chart to setup and configure SolrCloud. However, for setting up collections in Solr in order to start sending documents I can only find manual/interactive options, either by using a solr script or by using the Admin UI. By looking for a solution that allows me to configure a collection via my helm chart / CRDs, I saw that the SolrCollection CRD was removed very early on to keep a single-source-of-truth. What is the current way to automatically configure collections in a setup like above? Is it init containers that run curl commands / solr scripts? Thanks in advance, Christos
