Remove single core support #39

Closed saily closed 9 years ago

saily commented 9 years ago

I found following statement in Solr wiki: Support for single-core mode is likely to be removed in version 5.0.

Removing single core support would make things a lot easier and more generic to test. I'd recommend to implement single core mode as a multicore setup with just one default core preconfigured. if cores attribute is missing (for legacy setups) it would be necessary to read from single core data dir in var/solr directly to not confuse users if they did not pin their recipe version in production setups. For now i see no disadvantage.

I'm also thinking about completly removing Solr 3.5 support from the recipe. What do you guys think about?

+1 removing old solr support is perfectly fine as long all housekeeping was done before: branch away old version, increase major version, document it.

Single core support dropped for Solr 5 in #40.
