Admin UI
[ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SOLR-4157?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=13532545#comment-13532545 ]
Mark Miller commented on SOLR-4157:
-----------------------------------
I have not really look at /browse, so I cannot comment there, but +1 on adding a more conventional search UI option to the admin ui!

> The /browse interface is looking old. It also gives the impression that using the VelocityResponseWriter to create HTML is actually a good idea.
> At the same time, /browse is actually quite useful - it provides easy access to some features such as explains, raw queries, etc, in an easy and usable way.
> We also have a lovely new admin UI.
> So, after some thought, it occurred to me that we should migrate the functionality of /browse to the admin UI.
> At present, in the query pane, we have an 'advanced' query pane (you just enter request parameters) and an advanced results pane (we just show raw XML or JSON, etc).
> I suggest we add simple versions of each. A simple query pane would give a more conventional search interface for running queries. A simple results pane would give HTML formatted results with features to nicely display hightlighting, explains, etc.
> To give an idea of what this might look like, I've attached a rudimentary patch that gives an HTML option for wt which formats the query results as (somewhat minimal) HTML.
> Thoughts welcome.
