-------------------------------------
Summary: JcrPersist: Provide transparent persistence to Sling
Models
Key: SLING-8450
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SLING-8450
Project: Sling
Issue Type: New Feature
Components: API
Reporter: Brendan Robert
Attachments: SlingJCRPersist.zip
As a developer using sling, I would like my sling models to serve as a core of
a MVC coding paradigm; however, it is not possible to do this without writing
my own persistence logic to save my sling models back into resources for every
project I do this.
I propose a new module to work in tandem with Sling Models, such that Sling
Models serve as a mechanism to load data from JCR and the JcrPersist module
provides an OSGi service to save changes to beans back to the JCR via a persist
method.
There are some complex sling model features, such as @via, which will likely
not be subject to this feature, and other cases such as transient variables
that should not be persisted. The persist service should provide the developer
a sufficient set of features to decide how much or how little is persisted with
it. Like Sling Models, this should rely on annotations so that no additional
external configurations are needed.
PS: Here's the implementation with ~90% unit test coverage. See attached. :)
