[jira] [Commented] (OAK-414) Importing protected properties and nodes

["Manfred Baedke (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>]

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/OAK-414?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=13650752#comment-13650752 ] 

Manfred Baedke commented on OAK-414:
------------------------------------

Current status: The session import is functional. Essentially it has been ported from Jackrabbit, along with all test cases that do not use workspace import or use config options of the user/ACL import that are not (yet) available in Oak (details will follow). The current implementation uses the JCR API. The next step will be to implement the workspace import based on the Oak API, ideally in a way that allows to use it for a session import, too.

> for backwards compatibility with jackrabbit we should also implement
> the ability to import protected items.
> while import version content is most probably unique and system defined,
> there are quite some areas like user management and access control that
> need to be pluggable and thus the particular import behavior should be
> defined by the corresponding implementation.
> i envision this to work in a similar way than the implementation
> specific validators.
> steps to get there include:
> - properly setup the xml-import such that it recognizes protected items
>   and calls the configured protected-item-importers.
> - allow to plugin implementation specific extensions
> - define an interface for that protected item import.
> regarding the latest part: in contrast to jackrabbit core, where we had
> just the JCR API at hand i would suggest to setup those special importers
> such that they can operate both on the JCR API (session and extensions)
> and on the OAK API giving the implementation more flexibility on how
> to actually treat the import.
