[jira] [Commented] (SLING-7468) Allow to configure the Distribution Resource Provider

["Marius Petria (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>]

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SLING-7468?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=16386079#comment-16386079 ] 

Marius Petria commented on SLING-7468:
--------------------------------------

[~marett] I haven't looked yet at your patch but I wanted to share something from the initial design intent. From a security perspective there should be very little flexibility on what configs should be exposed as resources. We should hardcode the exact osgi factories that are available through the provider to avoid random osgi config editing. As I said, I do not know if your patch violates this principle, so if the comment is misplaced please ignore it.

> The implementation maps OSGI configurations and services as sling resources.
> The implementation is not flexible to allow plugging a custom agent in the resource tree.
> The mapping seems to be done currently in enums, for instance
> https://github.com/apache/sling-org-apache-sling-distribution-core/blob/master/src/main/java/org/apache/sling/distribution/component/impl/DistributionComponentKind.java
> This issue is about making the configuration flexible (OSGI properties) or even configuration-less (figure out the mappings at runtime). As a side effect, the implementation may be simplified.
