[jira] Created: (JELLY-194) New tag that copy text files replacing Jelly properties

New tag that copy text files replacing Jelly properties
-------------------------------------------------------

         Key: JELLY-194
         URL: http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/JELLY-194
     Project: jelly
        Type: New Feature
  Components: taglib.util  
    Versions: 1.0    
    Reporter: Felipe Leme


Hi,

It would be nice if there was a Jelly tag similar to <ant:copy> that would copy text files replacing the Jelly properties.

For instance, I need to copy a datasource XML definition to JBoss before running Cactus (on maven), but each developer in my project has its own database schema. So, I could have a XML file like this:
 
<datasource>
      <username>${ds.username}</username>
      <password>${ds.password}</password>
</datasource>

And then something like this on maven.xml:

<preGoal name="cactus:test">
   <util:copyAndReplace file="datasource.xml" 
         toFile="${env.JBOSS_HOME}/server/default/deploy"/> 
</preGoal>

If you think such tag is useful (and hence would be incorporated on Jelly), I could write the tag and test cases and then submit a patch (I'm just not sure what's the best name for it).

[jira] Updated: (JELLY-194) New tag that copy text files replacing Jelly properties

    Attachment: JELLY-194.patch1

dIon,

Using <core:import> or <core:include> is not enough because these tags would try to 
execute the text as a Jelly script, instead of simply returning the text with the expressions
evaluated.

So, I'm providing an initial patch that adds a new tag called CopyText (I will provide another patch
where this tag and LoadText extends from a common class).

[jira] Commented: (JELLY-194) New tag that copy text files replacing Jelly properties

Felipe Leme commented on JELLY-194:
-----------------------------------

dIon,

Yes, it probably can be done using a combination of other tags (in my case, I'm using Ant replace, i.e., I have @USERNAME@ and @PASSWORD@ in the XML file and use ant tags inside Jelly to replace the values).

But I think it would be more useful/reusable if we could do everything in just one operation (well, at least I think that's a common operation).

Posted by "Felipe Leme (JIRA)" <co...@jakarta.apache.org>.
     [ http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/JELLY-194?page=history ]

Felipe Leme updated JELLY-194:
------------------------------

    Attachment: JELLY-194.patch2

Full patch, where the new tag (CopyTextTag) and the existing LoadTextTag now
derives from AbstractTextTag.
The patch also contains the cumulative fixes for JELLY-203 and JELLY-205 (although neither 
this patch nor the patches for these other issues include changes to xdocs/changes.xml).

Felipe Leme commented on JELLY-194:
-----------------------------------

Ok, here is how to implement it using "pure" Jelly tags:
<j:file name="${toFile}" 
   prettyPrint="true"
   outputMode="xml" 
   omitXmlDeclaration="true">
    <j:import file="${fromFile}" inherit="true"/>
</j:file>  


I still think a tag would be useful though (or at least a FAQ entry somewhere :-)

Felipe Leme commented on JELLY-194:
-----------------------------------

Any clue when/if these issues (JELLY-194, JELLY-203, JELLY-204 and JELLY-205) will make it to the codebase? 

In particular, I think this feature is very useful - everytime I start a project in a new company, I need to create a small project only to provide such tag...

Can this be done with core:file and core:import?
