[jira] Commented: (FELIX-2100) Initial Config Loader

["Richard S. Hall (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>]

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FELIX-2100?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=12835594#action_12835594 ] 

Richard S. Hall commented on FELIX-2100:
----------------------------------------

I think the OBR spec definitely intends to support other resource types, but so far has only demonstrated this fact by calling the base unit of description a "resource". I have thought a little bit about this area too and I think it makes sense to improve upon the situation. This will be an area I investigate when I find the time to work on OBR in more depth. My current thought is that we should basically adopt the ResourceProcessor approach of the Deployment Admin spec, but I haven't given it too much more thought than just reaching this conclusion. :-)

> I've a request to be able to make customer specific configuration bundles - bundles that includes Configurations for other bundles. If a bundle is deployed, extracts the configuration files and register it with configadmin. If bundle is removed, removes configurations. If you have ideas, please share it! (I'm new in this Felix world, I've used it only with Sling as a user)
> I will make a short proporsal and a whiteboard implementation.
> The name of impmelemtation is configloader
> The configloader service will implement the SynchronousBundleListener, and registering itself in activation and unregistering in deactivation.
> When a new bundle is registering, checking the Bundle-InitialConfigurations in META-INF/MANIFEST.MF file. If the entry is presented, checking the given folders for *.xml files describes the configurations entry. (To handle the Factory services also).
> Is it correct?
