[jira] [Commented] (FELIX-2100) Initial Config Loader
[ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FELIX-2100?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=13541492#comment-13541492 ]
Felix Meschberger commented on FELIX-2100:
------------------------------------------
This is quite dated.
I am also not sure what to make of it: For one thing I think relating the life cycle of a bundle with the "life cycle" of configuration is conceptually wrong. Also the creators are generally (conceptually) different: A bundle is created by a developer while configuration is created and managed by a systems administrator (even though default configuration might be provided by a developer).
IMHO approaches like those provided by the Felix File Install or Sling OSGi Installer are more appropriate.

> 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?
