Andi Huber reassigned ISIS-1880:
--------------------------------
Assignee: Andi Huber
> New value type needed for internal URLs ?
> -----------------------------------------
>
> Key: ISIS-1880
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ISIS-1880
> Project: Isis
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: Core
> Affects Versions: 2.0.0-M1
> Reporter: Andi Huber
> Assignee: Andi Huber
> Priority: Major
> Fix For: 2.0.0-M1
>
>
> The framework in prototyping mode (when rendering domain objects) provides
> links to swagger and the restful api.
> However, this links do not work in general.
> Currently these links are contributed by actions that return java.net.URL
> value types. Which works fine if we want to link to external web-resources.
> But when linking to internal web-resources its almost impossible to derive
> the absolute URL a client actually sees.
> E.g. we have the relative path to swagger: '/swagger-ui/index.html' but it's
> impossible to derive the absolute path in general like
> 'http://some-server:someport:/...'. Not to mention that the servlet container
> hosting Isis could sit behind a http-reverse-proxy, or that we don't know if
> the protocol is http or https (SSL could be terminated somewhere else).
> And I believe, we should not even have to care!
> So I'd propose, we introduce a new value type similar to URL, but one that
> only represents relative paths within the web-app.
> Feel free to comment, if I'm wrong our there is a better solution.
