[jira] [Created] (SLING-5739) [Sling Models] Allow for extensible @Via providers

Justin Edelson created SLING-5739:
-------------------------------------

             Summary: [Sling Models] Allow for extensible @Via providers
                 Key: SLING-5739
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SLING-5739
             Project: Sling
          Issue Type: New Feature
          Components: Extensions
            Reporter: Justin Edelson


Currently, @Via support in Sling Models is limited to JavaBean properties. It would be useful to be able to extend this and allow for downstream projects to add new @Via providers.

Proposing to support this by extending the @Via annotation
{code}
@Via(value = "jcr:content", type = ChildResource.class)
{code}

The default type is BeanProperty (the current behavior).

New providers can be added by implementing a ViaProvider SPI and provide a marker class for use in the annotation.
