Solr config and schema linting and validation

[Karl Stoney <Ka...@autotrader.co.uk.INVALID>]

Hi all,
I'm trying to add some tests to the pipeline which deploys our solr config, and right now i'm working with bash/xmlint/xmlstarlet, and it's a bit crude.

Does anyone have any tips/pointers on how best to validate solrconfig.xml and schema.xml.  Is there published schemas for specific solr versions we can validate against?  etc etc.

Thanks
Karl

I am not aware of any, and I looked. In fact I have two pages of notes
of what a service like that would look like if I chose to create one.
My main thought was that solrconfig and schema are effectively a graph
database and that can be used for validation both against rules and
for unused/wrong references.

So, I would be very interested in any tips/pointers as well, or even
in "ideas" around that. Some of my own are at:
