Piergiorgio Lucidi commented on CONNECTORS-1492:
------------------------------------------------
I think that we should provide a ManifoldCF SDK in order to help developers
building their own connectors and containers.
So being focused on an additional SDK module can be the right way to approach,
this is also something that could help developers implementing custom
connectors, I'm expecting something like the following:
# Maven project to clone / download
# An example of a custom connector is provided by default
# Build the Connector JAR
# Build the overlayed ManifoldCF webapp (light version) with the new connector
# Build and deploy locally the container using Docker
# Run the entire ManifoldCF docker containers (pulling the external ones
PostgreSQL, Elastic and so on)
Recently I have successfully published similar SDK for Keycloak and Alfresco
Process Services:
[https://github.com/OpenPj/alfresco-process-services-project-sdk]
[https://github.com/OpenPj/keycloak-docker-quickstart]
I think that I could start something similar for ManifoldCF :P
What do you think?

> Key: CONNECTORS-1492
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CONNECTORS-1492
> Project: ManifoldCF
> Issue Type: New Feature
> Reporter: Piergiorgio Lucidi
> Assignee: Piergiorgio Lucidi
> Priority: Major
> Labels: devops, docker, gsoc2018
> Original Estimate: 240h
> Remaining Estimate: 240h

> This is a project idea for [Google Summer of
> Code|https://summerofcode.withgoogle.com/] (GSOC).
> To discuss this or other ideas with your potential mentor from the Apache
> ManifoldCF project, sign up and post to the [email protected] list,
> including "[GSOC]" in the subject. You may also comment on this Jira issue if
> you have created an account.
> We would like to adopt Docker to provide ready to use images with
> preconfigured architecture stack for ManifoldCF. This will include ManifoldCF
> itself but also the related database that can be MySQL, PostgreSQL and so on.
> This will help developers to work and put in production a complete ManifoldCF
> installation.
> You will be involved in the development of the following tasks, you will
> learn how to:
> * Write Docker files
> * Write Docker Compose files
> * Implement unit tests
> * Build all the integration tests
> * Write the documentation for new component
> We have a complete documentation about ManifioldCF:
> [https://manifoldcf.apache.org/release/release-2.9.1/en_US/concepts.html]
> Take a look at our book to understand better the framework and how to extend
> it in different ways:
