Hi Lenya devs,
to sum up the recent UUID discussion:
From my point of view, the next step would be to use UUIDs to
identify documents. That would mean that the default persistence
mechanism would store documents in a flat structure which would
look like this:
550e8400-e29b-11d4-a716-446655440000
550e8400-e29b-11d4-a716-446655440000.meta
is 550e8400-e29b-11d4-a716-446655440000 (without suffix meta) the
actual content? I guess you are refering to the reference to the
resource,
right?
It would be the name of the file which contains the actual content.
I think this is exactly the problem, that a URL doesn't have to
correspond to exactly one resource
within a repository, be it referenced by UUID or whatever and I think
this is what we need to
change within Lenya
550e8400-e29b-11d4-a716-446655440231
550e8400-e29b-11d4-a716-446655440231.meta
550e8400-e29b-11d4-a716-446655443402
550e8400-e29b-11d4-a716-446655443402.meta
Do you share this opinion?
if we are talking about a default persistance manager then yes, but
if this would be hardcoded, then no ;-)
The question is if the persistence manager should get any
information apart from the UUID. If only the UUID is provided,
there won't be a chance to use human-readable file names.
right, IIRC this is what Jackrabbit does and I think it's wrong, whereas
it might be good
practice, but I think one should give people the freedom to make also
use of the path
If not, how do you envision the storage structure?
I am not sure if we are confusing actual storage with referencing?
well, in order to show what I think how it should be implemented I
have started
something at http://svn.wyona.com/repos/public/yanel/trunk
whereas it's not quite working yet and also got distracted on
versioned published interfaces ... I have done this because I am
afraid I will never be able to explain my ideas, so I will try to let
this code speak.
OK, I'll take a look at it as soon as I find the time.
no problem. I didn't mean the actual code, but rather the ideas
illustrated by this code :-)
Thanks
Michi
