[jira] [Created] (SLING-2596) add an extension point to the Sling
Post Servlet which makes it easy to add new suffixes
Justin Edelson created SLING-2596:
-------------------------------------
Summary: add an extension point to the Sling Post Servlet which makes it easy to add new suffixes
Key: SLING-2596
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SLING-2596
Project: Sling
Issue Type: New Feature
Components: Servlets
Reporter: Justin Edelson
Writing a SlingPostProcessor to handle an @Foo -style property is too hard... we should make it easier.
Something like:
@Component
@Service
@Property(name="suffix", value="My")
public class MySuffixHandler implements PostSuffixHandler {
void handle(RequestProperty prop, Map<String, RequestProperty> allProperties) {
// TODO - recalculate the property values
}
}

bq. What would that be used for ?
Imagine you wanted to encrypt property values which were annotated with @Encrypted. In other words, posting
foo=somevalue
foo@Encrypted=true
should actually set the foo property to an encrypted version of "somevalue" (how this encryption is done isn't important).
To implement this in a SlingPostProcessor requires iterating the request parameters to extract the property names and then through the enter Modification list to update the values. This is a moderate amount of code (~150 lines). If we make this SuffixHandler a first-class extension point, that amount of code would be radically reduced.

Ok. Got it. So this helps simplifying the AbstractCreateOperation.collectContent method.

---------------------------------------
To be honest, I haven't thought through whether or not this would be applicable internally to Sling (in other words, would we convert our internal suffix handling logic to SuffixHandler services); I'm more thinking about applications built on top of Sling which want to support application-specific suffixes.
