[jira] [Commented] (SOLR-4431) Developer Curb Appeal: easier URLs for Cloud UI, Admin, etc.

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SOLR-4431?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=13626889#comment-13626889 ] 

Hoss Man commented on SOLR-4431:
--------------------------------

-1

a) this patch would change the behaviour only of the example jetty server, causing solr to (knowingly!) behave radically different if you deployed to a different servlet container.

2) as explicitly mentioned before, this change would cause problems for people trying to create solr cores (or handlers in the default solr core) named "cloud" (or any other names that get taken up by other aliases like this that might get added if we go down this road)...

bq. switching these UI URLs from things like "/~cloud" to "/cloud" would cause problems for anyone who might want to have a collection named "cloud" 

The included Admin UI is a nice to have, but improving it's ease of use or prettiness must not come at the expense of reduced configurability or expressiveness of the underlying API URLs.

If people want an admin UI for solr that has short and pretty URLs then it should be something deployed as an independent war (or written in ruby or whatever)

> Currently the URL to get the cloud UI is http://172.16.10.236:8983/solr/#/~cloud
> The path and anchor portion is very strange: "/solr/#/~cloud"
> Ideally it would just be "/cloud"
> Or even just "/", and if it's in "cloud mode", take the admin to the right place.
> If there's some internal important structural reason for "/solr", "#" and "~cloud" sections, perhaps each would need to be addressed.
> Another option would be to possibly put something the default Jetty xml file to handle this as some type of redirect or registered handle.
