Tobias Bocanegra commented on JCRVLT-271:
-----------------------------------------
thanks. I quickly looked at the PR. I think these changes cause the items to be
sorted twice during normal package assembly. I added some comments to the PR
in github.
ps: thanks for the CLA. I can confirm that you are listed.
> Support a CLI command to format vault xml files
> -----------------------------------------------
>
> Key: JCRVLT-271
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/JCRVLT-271
> Project: Jackrabbit FileVault
> Issue Type: New Feature
> Components: Misc
> Reporter: Dirk Rudolph
> Priority: Major
>
> In our projects we work with vlt IDE integrations (Intellij and Eclpise) to
> have an easy and feature rich development process. On the other hand there
> are situations where we are writing vlt xml files manually. To not have huge
> diffs of formatting changes we tend to commit those vlt xml files formatted
> in the way as they are produced by exporting the corresponding nodes from a
> remote repository.
> Unfortunately the format can not fully be achieved by formatting using the
> build in xml formatters of the IDE, nor am I aware of any tooling that would
> allow us to check the formatting using lets say a commit hook or maven
> plugin. So the common approach we use at the moment is to push and afterwards
> pull nodes to or from the remote repository.
> To improve that, only formatting the local files with the format the export
> uses is much more efficient and can also be automated.
> This is a proposal to introduce a _format_ command for the vlt-cli that:
> * accepts a list of file patterns that should be processed in the current
> directory tree
> * formats each file included by the patterns or
> * checks if the file is in the right format and fails if not with a list of
> all malformed files
> This can then be used to:
> * automatically format by cli invocation
> * validate the format during build or as pre commit hook
