Metrics API via Solrj

[deniz <de...@gmail.com>]

Are there anyway to get the metrics via solrj ? all of the examples seem like
using plain curl or http reqs with json response. I have found
org.apache.solr.client.solrj.io.stream.metrics package, but couldnt figure
out how to send the requests via solrj... 

could anyone help me to figure out how to deal with metrics api on solrj?

Thanks a lot Jason and Shawn, it is quite smooth although there is no built
in stuff like collection or schema request objects for metrics :)

If you're running a new enough SolrJ version, which you probably are 
because findRecursive was added more than five years ago, all of these 
code lines can be replaced with one code line:

   Long numClassesLoaded = (Long) response.getResponse().findRecursive(
"metrics", "solr.jvm", "classes.loaded");

I don't think it'll run any faster, or even use any less memory, but I 
think it is much easier to read and understand.

Thanks,
Shawn

Hi Deniz,

I don't think there are any classes that simplify accessing the
metrics API like there are for other APIs (e.g.
CollectionAdminRequest, CoreAdminRequest, ..).  But sending metrics
requests in SolrJ is still possible; it's just a little bit more
complicated.

Anytime you want to make an API call that doesn't have specific
objects for it, you can use one of the general-purpose SolrRequest
objects.  I've included an example below that reads the
"classes.loaded" JVM metric:

        final SolrClient client = new
HttpSolrClient.Builder("http://localhost:8983/solr").build();

        final ModifiableSolrParams params = new ModifiableSolrParams();
        params.set("group", "jvm");
        final GenericSolrRequest req = new
GenericSolrRequest(SolrRequest.METHOD.GET, "/admin/metrics", params);

        SimpleSolrResponse response = req.process(client);
        NamedList<Object> respNL = response.getResponse();
        NamedList<Object> metrics = (NamedList<Object>)respNL.get("metrics");
        NamedList<Object> jvmMetrics = (NamedList<Object>)
metrics.get("solr.jvm");
        Long numClassesLoaded = (Long) jvmMetrics.get("classes.loaded");
        System.out.println("Num classes loaded was: " + numClassesLoaded);

It's a little more painful to have to dig through the NamedList
yourself, but it's still very do-able.  Hope that helps.

Best,

Jason
