[jira] [Commented] (FELIX-3128) A Service Diagnostics service and
graphical WebConsole plugin
[ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FELIX-3128?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=13119928#comment-13119928 ]
Carsten Ziegeler commented on FELIX-3128:
-----------------------------------------
Arjun, the vote to accept your contribution has passed:
http://www.mail-archive.com/dev@felix.apache.org/msg23154.html
If you haven't already filed an ICLA and a Software Grant yet, then do so, since that'll be the next requirement for proceeding.
For more information see here:
As stated in http://incubator.apache.org/ip-clearance/ip-clearance-template.html:
A software grant must be provided to the ASF. This grant can either be done by the ASF Corporate CLA (via Schedule B) or the traditional License Agreement. Acceptable methods of sending the grant to the ASF includes:
snail-mail to the ASF office and/or ASF officer
FAXing to the ASF office and/or an ASF officer
Emailing the scanned document to secretary@apache.org and legal-archive@apache.org.
Thanks.

When building service oriented architectures, it is often the case that a single missing requirement will lock a full stack of services, but to find that one requirement is like finding a needle in a haystack!
> The basic idea here is to ask each dependency manager instance about its unresolved dependencies, merge all answers and filter the result to keep only the root causes.
> Typically, if A depends on B which depends on C which depends on D, and D is nowhere to be found, I need only show the "C -> D" missing requirement; if D is resolved, then the whole stack is unlocked.
> Similarly, if D is known by another dependency management system, but unregistered because it depends on E which is missing, then only the "D -> E" requirement is relevant.
> The proposed code is composed as follows:
> * servicediagnostics: the API package. It holds the main service interface as well as the plugin interface, to extend to other dependency management systems
> * servicediagnostics.impl: the implementation package. It contains plugins implementations for org.apache.felix.scr and org.apache.felix.dependencymanager, as well as the main service implementation.
> * servicediagnostics.webconsole: a Felix WebConsole plugin that displays a graphical view of the diagnostics result. Alternatively it can also show a graph of all services currently registered in the service registry and the bundles using them. See Screenshot-notavail.png and Screenshot-all.png. Using the Raphael graffle library (http://raphaeljs.com/graffle.html) allows for nice interactive views of the service registry.
> The attached package is provided as a maven project, along with a sample runner. Simply untar the files, run mvn install and then run.sh.
> Follow the Readme file for details.
> It is not perfect and still needs some improvements (in handling service filters for instance) but as such it is already quite useful.

Hi,
I've received the acknowledgements for both the grant and the ICLA.

Thanks Carsten, excellent news!
I've sent the forms to the secretary and legal service; awaiting for
their acknowledgement.
Best regards,
