Karl Wright updated CONNECTORS-58:
----------------------------------
Priority: Minor (was: Major)
Component/s: Examples
(was: Framework core)
I'm going to put this in a new category called "examples".
> Mini-API to initially configure default connections and "example" jobs for
> file system and web crawl

> Creating a basic connection setup to do a relatively simple crawl for a file
> system or web can be a daunting task for someone new to LCF. So, it would be
> nice to have a scripting file that supports an abbreviated API (subset of the
> full API discussed in CONNECTORS-56) sufficient to create a default set of
> connections and example jobs that the new user can choose from.
> Beyond this initial need, this script format might be a useful form to "dump"
> all of the connections and jobs in the LCF database in a form that can be
> used to recreate an LCF configuration. Kind of a "dump and reload"
> capability. That in fact might be how the initial example script gets created.
> Those are two distinct use cases, but could utilize the same feature.
> The example script could have example jobs to crawl a subdirectory of LCF,
> crawl the LCF wiki, etc.
> There could be more than one script. There might be example scripts for each
> form of connector.
> This capability should be available for both QuickStart and the general
> release of LCF.
> As just one possibility, the script format might be a sequence of JSON
> expressions, each with an initial string analogous to a servlet path to
> specify the operation to be performed, followed by the JSON form of the
> connection or job or other LCF object. Or, some other format might be more
> suitable.
> Note: This issue is part of Phase 1 of the CONNECTORS-50 umbrella issue.
