---------------------------------------
Summary: Provide a way to get the search paths without login into
a resource resolver
Key: SLING-7537
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SLING-7537
Project: Sling
Issue Type: New Feature
Components: API, ResourceResolver
Reporter: Carsten Ziegeler
Assignee: Carsten Ziegeler
Fix For: Resource Resolver 1.5.38, API 2.16.6
Right now, the only possible way to get the configured search paths for
resource resolving is to actually create a resource resolver (by logging in
using a service user). Then the search paths array can be get from the resolver
and the resolver can be closed. This is pretty expensive for just getting a
setting.
In theory, each resolver could have different search paths; in reality we never
went down this road and I think in fact we can't. There is a lot of code out
there, assuming that each resolver has the same search paths; the resource
change listener act in exactly the same way.
Therefore I suggest we simply add the search paths either as a service
registration property of the resource resolver factory or as a new method. This
makes getting this setting very easy.
