Theme files loading taking longer time
Hello Devs,
Greetings for the day, I hope you all are doing well in this pandemic
situation.
I wanted to bring your attention to a case where it takes a lot of time to
load the themes to the cache.
On checking, I found that OFBiz searches all the Theme.xml files under
ofbiz.home with 'themes' as a partial path written under
ThemeFactory.pullModelThemesFromXmlToCache(). The problem occurs mainly
when the runtime data is huge in the system, and it increases the time
since the current code also scans the Theme.xml under runtime directory.
What should we do to resolve this issue?
A solution comes to mind which is to include 'themes' directory in the
basePath for the searching of Theme.xml file.
Please advise and share your thoughts.

Hi Pawan,
I can imagine that this can be come a huge negative factor, when the
implementing adopter includes a lot of themes for both back-end and
front-ends. Though I would guess that the adopter would have one for
back-end. But with a multitude of front-ends and each having its own theme
it would be cumbersome.
Maybe a disentanglement of various themes is in order?
Met vriendelijke groet,

With respects to (optional) themes we should consider to move those to a
separate repository or to individual repositories, offering our (potential)
more opt-in choices.

Hi Nicolas,
Thanks for the feedback. We have reduced the path to only themes and
plugins directory under OFBIZ-11665
<https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/OFBIZ-11665>.
I've found that two themes i.e. multiflex and e-commerce are loaded from
plugins.

Hi Nicolas,
Could be because of the partialPath parameter of findXmlFiles().
It's a bit confusing at 1st glance, this method lacks of documentation :/

Hello Pawan,
By default I use de basePath to include themes and plugins directory.
With this we can load a theme by the plugins system.
So two possibilities, reduce the path to only these tow directories (and
I don't understand why I haven't did at the beginning) or exclude the
possibility to load a theme as plugin

Hi,
I have a look at the code, it's not obvious, a Jira fits

Hi Pawan,
+1 to the use of more specific basePath for the search
