                    boolean preRegister,
                    boolean requireName)

Parameters:

type - is the 'type' name included in error messages.

protected String[] getDefaultPackages()

Where to look for classes

create

protected T create(SolrResourceLoader loader,
       String name,
       String className,
       Node node)
            throws Exception

Create a plugin from an XML configuration. Plugins are defined using:

 <plugin name="name1" class="solr.ClassName">
      ...
 </plugin>
 

Parameters:

name - - The registered name. In the above example: "name1"

className - - class name for requested plugin. In the above example: "solr.ClassName"

node - - the XML node defining this plugin

Throws:

Exception

register

protected abstract T register(String name,
         T plugin)
                       throws Exception

Register a plugin with a given name.

Returns:

The plugin previously registered to this name, or null

Throws:

Exception

init

protected abstract void init(T plugin,
        Node node)
                      throws Exception

Initialize the plugin.

Parameters:

plugin - - the plugin to initialize

node - - the XML node defining this plugin

Throws:

Exception

load

public T load(SolrResourceLoader loader,
     NodeList nodes)

Initializes and registers each plugin in the list. Given a NodeList from XML in the form:

 <plugins>
    <plugin name="name1" class="solr.ClassName" >
      ...
    </plugin>
    <plugin name="name2" class="solr.ClassName" >
      ...
    </plugin>
 </plugins>
 

This will initialize and register each plugin from the list. A class will be generated for each class name and registered to the given name. If 'preRegister' is true, each plugin will be registered *before* it is initialized This may be useful for implementations that need to inspect other registered plugins at startup. One (and only one) plugin may declare itself to be the 'default' plugin using:

 <plugin name="name2" class="solr.ClassName" default="true">
 

If a default element is defined, it will be returned from this function.

loadSingle

public T loadSingle(SolrResourceLoader loader,
           Node node)

Initializes and registers a single plugin. Given a NodeList from XML in the form:

 <plugin name="name1" class="solr.ClassName" > ... </plugin>
 

This will initialize and register a single plugin. A class will be generated for the plugin and registered to the given name. If 'preRegister' is true, the plugin will be registered *before* it is initialized This may be useful for implementations that need to inspect other registered plugins at startup. The created class for the plugin will be returned from this function.
