Thanks for the quick feedback everyone!

I created an issue https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/OFBIZ-13415 for moving the plugin into framework.

For some reason I could not figure out how to assign it to myself, there did not seem to be an option (Still new to jira). Just know that I will start working on it soonish, depending on capacitys.

Best regards,

Lukas

Hi Nicolas,

in the course of the refactoring we would also contribute our enhancements to the functionality, of which parts are already listed in the subtasks of https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/OFBIZ-11328. There are other ideas and implementations not listed there.
Ok nice, I didn't follow this subject so no vision on this issue, it great if before merging it on framework the most identify improvement will be done.

Tests and an example are a good idea, we'll take this into account.
Sure, that important for other to be sure if I apply a framework change, I'll not break this work and can introduce many frustration.

The separation of services and the rest api definition is intentional: services can be used independently of the REST API as usual. Only if you want to make them available to REST, you'll configure them in the REST definition. I do not recommend to mix those definitions.
I would talk, not merge api element on the service definition, but more like seca. If api it's a part of the framework, we can follow like other framework element


    <service-resource type="model" loader="main" location="servicedef/services.xml"/>     <service-resource type="eca" loader="main" location="servicedef/secas.xml"/>     <service-resource type="api" loader="main" location="servicedef/service-rest.xml"/>

Cheers,
Nicolas

Hi,

I thinks it's a good idea if we growing the quality code to include it as real component and not only move it from plugins to framework.

What bothers me (or I missed something) :
 * No integration test and unit test
 * Rename the webapp docs for less generic word
 * Separation of service and api xml definition, perhaps thinking how define it on the same model
 * Have implement example (in logic present with test by the way)

At Néréide we currently work on different improvement on the framework, I don't know if we have the time to help on this task but if some window will be present, I would be a pleasure.

Hi all,

I'd like to bring up a topic that has been briefly touched upon in the past: integrating the REST-API plugin directly into the framework as a core component.

As many of you know, the REST API plugin has become an increasingly important building block for OFBiz-based projects. Rather than leaving it as an optional add-on, I think it could benefit the community to have it maintained and shipped as part of the standard framework.

We at ecomify have been working with the plugin for years and discussed this internally. If the community approves, we would love to put in the work to make this happen.

Looking forward to hearing your thoughts

Lukas
