------------------------------------
Summary: Default GET Servlet: Support binary data in JSON Renderer
Key: SLING-11892
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SLING-11892
Project: Sling
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: Servlets
Reporter: Yegor Kozlov
The JSON Renderer in the Sling GET Servlet does not export binary properties
and prints the length instead of the data:
{code:java}
{
"jcr:primaryType": "nt:resource",
":jcr:data": 20127
}
{code}
Note that the names of binary properties are prefixed with a colon.
I would like to introduce an OSGi flag to enable exporting binaries in base64.
If enabled, the output would look something like
{code:java}
{
"jcr:primaryType": "nt:resource",
":jcr:data": "iVBORw0KGgoA...."
}
{code}
The default is _false_ which means existing consumers will keep getting the
length.
There is a related ticket https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SLING-11891 to
make sense of the base64 data when importing from JSON.
This change will improve symmetry between export and import in Sling GET/POST
servlets and make round-trips more reliable.
The PR is coming
