[jira] Commented: (SLING-719) Node-based configs for jcrinstall

["Bertrand Delacretaz (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>]

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SLING-719?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=12644971#action_12644971 ] 

Bertrand Delacretaz commented on SLING-719:
-------------------------------------------

Work in progress implementation committed in revision 711260

A node like this one, found in a folder watched by jcrinstall:

 curl http://localhost:7402/org.apache.sling.SomeConfig.cfg.tidy.2.json 
{
  "somevalue": "here",
  "jcr:primaryType": "nt:unstructured",
  "foo": {
    "somevalue": "bar",
    "jcr:primaryType": "nt:unstructured"
  }
}

Will cause an OSGi config with pid = "org.apache.sling.SomeConfig" to be created, with a single somevalue=here property.

The node name must end with .cfg and the node type must be nt:unstructured.

If the node has a child like "foo" in the example, its properties override the ones of the main mode if the "foo" runmode (provided by the RunMode service) is active, to provide for runmode-dependent configurations.

The code needs more automated tests for those new features.

> Besides the existing .cfg file format, having node-based configurations would make them more granular and easier to patch.
> I'll implement an additional config source for jcrinstall, that uses nodes and properties (including multi-value, and taking property types into account).
