Carsten Ziegeler commented on FELIX-3874:
-----------------------------------------
To wrap it up:
- a plugin can support one or more of these modes: TEXT, HTML_BODY, JSON,
ZIP_FILE_BIN and ZIP_FILE_JSON
- in addition if it supports one of the ZIP modes, it can implement the
ZipAttachmentProvider
- plugin's with TEXT or HTML_BODY are displayed in the web console
- the printers might now support JSON
- zip contains printers wtih ZIP_FILE_BIN or ZIP_FILE_JSON
- if two printers are registered with the same name, the one with the higher
service ranking wins
- printers are registered as own web console plugins under default category
"Status"
- web console configuration printers are registered as new status printers
(which in turn are registered as web console plugins)
> Create new status printer module

> Key: FELIX-3874
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FELIX-3874
> Project: Felix
> Issue Type: Task
> Affects Versions: webconsole-4.0.0
> Reporter: Carsten Ziegeler
> Assignee: Carsten Ziegeler
> Fix For: webconsole-4.0.2, status-printer-1.0.0
>
>
> The web console contains support for arbitrary configuration printer plugins.
> The plugins are meant to collect the current state of the installation and
> provide a combined view. The results from the different printers can be
> retrieved in different formats including a zip. Especially this zip makes
> offline checking of problems and analyzing much easier as it contains all
> relevant information (and additional plugins can easiliy be deployed)
> While this feature is very useful the concept of having configuration
> printers is not really tied to the web console. Therefore we should create a
> new module which just has the support for such printers but is not tied to
> the web console.
