Description
hhttp://yonik.com/solr-json-request-api/
The drawbacks to only having a query-parameter API include:
- Inherently un-structured, requiring unsightly parameters like f.facet_name.facet.range.start=5
- Inherently un-typed… everything is a string.
- More difficult to decipher large requests.
- Harder to programmatically create a request.
- Impossible to validate. Because of the lack of structure, we don’t know the set of valid parameter and thus can’t do good error checking.
