Description

A command as follows fails

curl http://localhost:8983/solr/gettingstarted/config -H 'Content-type:application/json'  -d '
{
    "add-searchcomponent": {
        "name": "myspellcheck",
        "class": "solr.SpellCheckComponent",
        "queryAnalyzerFieldType": "text_general",
        "spellchecker": {
            "name": "default",
            "field": "_text_",
            "class": "solr.DirectSolrSpellChecker"
        }
    }
}'

and there is no possible alternative

The reason is SeachComponent expects a NamedList with the name "spellchecker" . But json does not support NamedList
