Hi Lenya devs,
recently there was a discussion about the Creator interface in 1.4. I guess some of you lost track, so I'd like to summarize a question that IMO should be discussed:
Do we want to keep the Creator mechanism? An alternative would be to handle specific creation mechanisms in usecases. The usecase framework provides an easy-to-use approach for overriding usecases in publications, as already used in the blog publication.
The basic question is if we need a configurable doctype-based creation polymorphism. IMO we don't - it is not too hard to implement something like that in a publication. This would be more flexible, and would probably allow better mechanisms than the current parameter map.
I agree that it's complicated at the moment and stuff grew historically.
Neverthless I still think we should offer some kind of "framework".
Can you explain a bit more what you have in mind?
Thanks
Michi
