--------------------------------------
Summary: Sling Repo Init: Add option to delete paths
Key: SLING-10136
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SLING-10136
Project: Sling
Issue Type: New Feature
Components: Repoinit
Affects Versions: Repoinit JCR 1.1.30, Repoinit Parser 1.6.4
Reporter: Henry Kuijpers
Given that we are able to create paths, it would also be beneficial to be able
to delete paths as well.
In our case, we're migrating a legacy setup to Sling Repo Init, where there are
some "leftover" nodes in the instances. Given that Sling Repo Init is an
"admin" way to initialize a repo, it would be very nice if delete statements
could be supported.
In our case, we would want to delete /apps/foundation, for example, because
historically there seem to have been modifications made there.
This mandates for a simple syntax like "delete path /apps/foundation" being
supported.
Another case is that we would like to cleanup /apps/cq, however, there are some
nodes that are maintained by the product (in our case AEM), such as
/apps/cq/xssprotection and also /apps/cq/core/content/nav/tools.
This mandates for a slightly more complicated syntax such as "delete path
/apps/cq (!/xssprotection,!/core/content/nav/tools,*)", however, I would be
fine with multiple delete path statements as well, for that usecase.
