-----------------------------------
Summary: Add FUSEKI_BASE extra classes directory
Key: JENA-1734
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/JENA-1734
Project: Apache Jena
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: Fuseki
Affects Versions: Jena 3.12.0
Reporter: Claude Warren
Assignee: Claude Warren
Currently the fuseki-server script has comments about how to modify the file to
add extra classes. This can be rather problematic when working in a
containerized environment like Docker.
This proposal is to add $FUSEKI_BASE/extra/* to the classpath for fuseki-server
so that persistent containers like stain/jena-fuseki have a non-instrusive
mechanism to add/update extra or 3rd party classes.
I don't see how to implement this in the windows batch file as it does not
appear to have environment variables set for similar purposes to the linux
scripts.
*Background:*
When running in docker it is possible to mount the FUSEKI_BASE either to local
storage or on a docker volume. This makes it easier to update the Jena
/fusekilibraries without losing the data. However, any edits made to add jars
to FUSEKI_HOME are lost during the update. Adding the $FUSEKI_BASE/extra to
the startup script means that 3rd party libraries are treated like data and not
removed when the Jena/fuseki code is updated.
