Description

This is a migrated issue from previous Luke repository on GitHub: https://github.com/DmitryKey/luke/issues/142

I have dropped the feature to support Solr's HDFSDirectory when porting Luke UI from Thinlet to JavaFX/Swing to drop the dependencies on Solr and Hadoop. I'm not sure how many people rely on this Thinlet Luke feature, but would it be possible to "inject" or "plugin" custom non-FS based directories when opening directory or starting up Luke?

For now I have not yet deeply studied how to implement, just wanted to hook the issue here.
