Andy Seaborne commented on JENA-1597:
-------------------------------------
The UI is in {{jena-fuseki-webapp}} which is the input to both
{{jena-fuseki-server}} (standalone full server) and {{jena-fuseki-war}}, war
file version. The standalone full server is Jetty runing the webapp, all
bundled together.
{{jena-fuseki-core}} includes the registries for which datasets are being
served; this is shared with the embedded version.
{{jena-fuseki-webapp}} is the set up code for the war initialization and
{{FusekiServer.Builder}} in {{jena-fuseki-basic}} for {{jena-fuseki-embedded}}.
{{jena-fuseki-embedded}} does not have a UI. It is given {{DatasetGraphs}} to
serve up.
webapp/war initialization is not compatible with using the builder style of
{{jena-fuseki-embedded}} but the size of {{jena-fuseki-webapp}} is the UI and
actions specific to the UI, and {{jena-fuseki-embedded}} is just
{{FusekiServer}} and {{Builder}}. All the service execution work is in
{{jena-fuseki-core}}.
----
I don't like the name "jena-fuseki-server" in its current role with the
different versions of Fuseki, nor the label "embedded". Going forward, I can
imagine that the non-UI server is the one to use in enterprise and
cloud/container deployments where exposing admin isn't relevant and
configuration/integration with the environment happens. e.g. The access control
JENA-1594 only works with the embedded/basic server.
I think it would be better for the basic server to optionally have some
query/upload UI - with nothing that is connected to on-disk configuration and
state.
WAR files are still used

A possible renaming is:
{noformat}
jena-fuseki-server -> jena-fuseki-fulljar
jena-fuseki-core -> jena-fuseki-engine (kernel?)
jena-fuseki-embedded -> jena-fuseki-core (or engine?)
jena-fuseki-basic -> jena-fuseki-server
{noformat}
> Split module jena-fuseki-core into the engine and separate webapp.

> Key: JENA-1597
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/JENA-1597
> Project: Apache Jena
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: Fuseki
> Affects Versions: Jena 3.8.0
> Reporter: Andy Seaborne
> Assignee: Andy Seaborne
> Priority: Major
>
> The module jena-fuseki-core has both the core of Fuseki (data registries,
> service servlets, the servlet filter) and the webapp code needed for the full
> server with UI.
> The embedded Fuseki does not need the webapp.
> Separating the two aspects into separate modules is cleaner and avoids the
> risk of webapp assumptions leaking into the non-webapp embedded server.
>
> The key difference is that the embedded/base server makes no assumptions
> about disk, it is given datasets to manage, where as the webapp full/UI
> server has an on-disk configuration and database area.
