[jira] [Commented] (SOLR-6476) Create a bulk mode for schema API

["Jason Gerlowski (Jira)" <ji...@apache.org>]

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SOLR-6476?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=17495756#comment-17495756 ] 

Jason Gerlowski commented on SOLR-6476:
---------------------------------------

bq. [Yonik] People hate repeated keys in JSON... we should avoid adding more of that if possible.

bq. [Noble] actually both formats are supported [...] But it is useful when order is important.

I stumbled on this decision after going down a rabbit hole this afternoon and am a bit confused.  I understand in general why operation ordering is important: field-types need to be created before a field can be created with that type, fields need created before a copyfield uses them as a destination, etc.  But at first glance, those are all compatible with the JSON list based syntax that Yonik suggested.

[~noble.paul] Do you remember what sort of bulk request you had in mind that wouldn't work with the key->array-of-values syntax that Yonik suggested?  I must be missing something obvious.

> The current schema API does one operation at a time and the normal usecase is that users add multiple fields/fieldtypes/copyFields etc in one shot.

> {code}
> curl http://localhost:8983/solr/collection1/schema -H 'Content-type:application/json'  -d '{
