> Our design time team needs a way to have the Trinidad Skinning Framework find trinidad-skins.xml from a location other than META-INF or WEB-INF.
> The implementation I have in mind is similar to https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TRINIDAD-1729 provide a hook for for an external decorator of Skin InputStreamProvider.
> I've mocked up a solution that works for our design time team. It is outlined below with questions I'll ask on the dev list.
> 1. Add a public API
> public interface TrinidadSkinsURLProvider (name to be determined)
> {
> // returns an Iterator of all the URLs that have this resource (trinidad-skins.xml)
> // Design time team needs the ExternalContext to be able to find their trinidad-skins.xml files.
> // They put a parameter on the ServletContext to help them.
> public Iterator<URL> findResources(ExternalContext context);
> }
>
> 2. Usage in SkinUtils.java
> a. Call List<TrinidadSkinsURLProvider> urlProviders = ClassLoaderUtils.getServices(
> "org.apache.myfaces.trinidad.share.io.TrinidadSkinsURLProvider");
> to get the List of TrinidadSkinsURLProviders.
> b. Call findResources for each TrinidadSkinsURLProvider
> c. Call the existing trinidad-skins.xml parse code.
> Questions I plan to ask on the dev list:
> a. Is this idea acceptable?
> b. Are there existing Trinidad APIs that I'm not aware of that I could use instead, like an existing ResourceLoader? org.apache.myfaces.trinidad.resource.ResourceLoader does not have a findResources method of any kind.
> c. Should we have a more generic class name, like URLProvider? Or URLResourceProvider? If so, then we can pass in the filename to findResources().
> d. What package should this go in? My mockup is in org.apache.myfaces.trinidad.share.io.
> e. ClassLoader#getResources returns an Enumeration<URL>. Should this new API be Iterator<URL> or should it match ClassLoader#getResources?
