[jira] [Commented] (SLING-7975) Add a Java API for ordering resources

["Konrad Windszus (Jira)" <ji...@apache.org>]

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SLING-7975?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=17434686#comment-17434686 ] 

Konrad Windszus commented on SLING-7975:
----------------------------------------

I think we can maybe start with just supporting ordering among a single provider. That should cover 99% of the cases already. Ordering among multiple providers can be added later if really necessary.

> Sling should provide an API (e.g. in Resource, ResourceResolver or ResourceUtil) to order resources, similar to what the JCR API provides:
> [https://docs.adobe.com/docs/en/spec/javax.jcr/javadocs/jcr-2.0/javax/jcr/Node.html#orderBefore(java.lang.String,%20java.lang.String])
>  
> This would help avoid having to use the JCR API.
>  
> The implementation is already available at:
> [https://github.com/apache/sling-old-svn-mirror/blob/trunk/bundles/servlets/post/src/main/java/org/apache/sling/servlets/post/AbstractPostOperation.java#L411]
>  
> It is only a matter of exposing it as part of the Sling API.
