Carsten Ziegeler commented on SLING-4154:
-----------------------------------------
Just to state this again, I think this is done the wrong way around. I would
build this up nice and clean from the bottom to the top, starting with OSGi
services, separate configs etc and then look what needs to be done at the top
to make things work - instead of "I want it this way at the top, let's do
something below to get that done regardless of how it looks" :)
And I totally disagree with not using OSGi configurations for these things -
over the last years we learned the pain of not doing so and it really seems
this is repeating history
> Discuss distribution components creation and configuration

> Key: SLING-4154
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SLING-4154
> Project: Sling
> Issue Type: Task
> Components: Distribution
> Reporter: Marius Petria
> Fix For: Content Distribution 0.2.0
>
>
> Distribution has one main component (agent) and several secondary components
> (triggers, exporters and importers).
> These can be created as java objects using a DistributionComponentFactory.
> The core framework provides a DefaultDistributionComponentFactory that will
> create the components implemented in the core but a client can define its own
> components and factory and the default component factory will use those to
> create a component it does not know of.
> The core framework also provides two ways of registering such a java object
> as an OSGI service:
> 1. using osgi configs, the osgi properties are parsed and passed to the
> factory, a component is created and registered
> (GenericDistributionComponentFactory)
> 2. resource configs, the properties of a resource are parsed and passed to
> the factory, a component is created and registered
> (ResourceBasedDistributionComponentFactory)
> Components registered as OSGI services are available as resources via
> OsgiServicePropertiesResourceProvider.
