Object LDAP Persistence Tooling
-------------------------------
Key: DIRSTUDIO-644
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DIRSTUDIO-644
Project: Directory Studio
Issue Type: New Feature
Reporter: Stefan Seelmann
Assignee: Stefan Seelmann
It would be nice to add Object to LDAP persistence tooling to Apache Directory
Studio.
The tooling should support two scenarios:
1st) Based on an existing directory tree and schema the domain model and
persistence code (DAOs) should be generated. The idea is to select an example
entry in the LDAP Browser, right-click, and generate the code into an Eclipse
Java project.
2nd) Based on an existing domain model (e.g. Java classes) an LDAP schema and
persistence code (DAOs) should be generated. The idea is to select a package in
the Eclipse Package Explorer, right-click, and generate the code.
A special challenge will be the support of object relationships, e.g.
Departments-Users-Groups-Roles-Permissions. In LDAP such relationships are
often implemented using hierarchies, DN references, or attribute references.
The main focus should be the generation of Java code. However it would be nice
if the code generators would be pluggable to make it possible to create code
for different languages (Scala, C#, etc.). It would also be nice to support
different persistence engines, for example plain JNDI, the Apache LDAP API, or
DataNucleus.
