Marius Petria commented on SLING-4154:
--------------------------------------
By hiding them in the webconsole we prevent the biggest source of getting out
of sync. Of course that one can edit directly using ConfigurationAdmin but that
will not be the recommended approach. In fact the recommended approach would be
to edit only through JCR settings, and the OSGI configs are just an
implementation detail.
I think in the end we have to weight the cons and pros for both approaches as
none is really perfect.

> 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.
