binsolr-zeppelin-tool

A Solr plugin that (in intent) provides an Apache Zeppelin integration into Solr's "bin/solr" CLI.

This integration doesn't currently work, because of two related classloading issues:

  1. SolrCLI, the core class that runs Tool implementations, only looks at Solr's "root" classloader for Tool classes.
  2. Plugin jars are loaded by CoreContainer, which implies a lot of machinery that the relatively minimal SolrCLI does not currently set up.

The packaging found here does work and allows the plugin to be installed- it just can't be invoked once installed.
