Tobias Bocanegra commented on SLING-3385:
-----------------------------------------
>>> For replication actions (commands) one would store the content of a command
>>> and a task (or event handler) would pick it up, pass it to the agent and
>>> then move it to outbox
>> store the 'commands' in the content - IMO that's nonsense.
> From what I found out that is the only secure way in sling to expose REST
> APIs OOTB. Any servlet based approach (registered by path or by resourcetype)
> is unsecure by default and must be protected inside the servlet.
I see your point, but defining a purely content driven command interface is not
very practical - especially in respect to error handling. and you have to deal
with clustering problematics, too.
> Expose replication agents actions and information via HTTP.

> We need a safe way to expose replication agents actions via HTTP.
> Replication agents are OSGI services that can do the following actions:
> - replicate a content tree (build a content package and add it to a queue)
> - add a content package into a queue
> - remove a content package from its queue
> A replication agent also exposes information about packages in its queues.
> We have to expose all this actions and information over HTTP in order to be
> available to authorized users.
> Actions:
> - Replicate (schedules a replication action)
> POST /system/replication/agents
> X-replication-action: ADD/DELETE
> X-replication-path: /content/mycontent
> X-replication-agent: {agentName}
> - Import/Export (adds or removes a package from a queue)
> POST /system/replication/packages
> X-replication-action: PACKAGE_OFFER/PACKAGE_POLL
> X-replication-queue: {queueName}
> X-replication-agent: {agentName}
> -Information about agents, queues, packages
> GET /system/replication/agents?agent={agentName}
> GET /system/replication/queues?agent={agentName}
> GET /system/replication/packages?queue={queueName}&agent={agentName}
