Jason E Bailey commented on SLING-7760: --------------------------------------- [~cziegeler]I don't need a plugin model. What I need is: # Ability to set a header on a per site basis # Ability to change the headers without causing a restart of the Application ## This was handled by SLING-8991 Thanks! And potentially being able to set headers based on the resource. This would be convenient for setting expiration dates on assets. etc. My problem when I was working with this is that once you write to the output stream you're no longer able to modify the headers. On a per application basis I could configure a filter and make sure it would work. But for a feature of the product I couldn't come up with a better solution then to have the headers set in the Main Servlet. > Sling Main Servlet - Change header configuration to a service > ------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: SLING-7760 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SLING-7760 > Project: Sling > Issue Type: Improvement > Reporter: Jason E Bailey > Assignee: Jason E Bailey > Priority: Major > > The ability to set headers must be done prior to any writing that occurs the > output stream. This is the reason why the headers are set to be configured in > the Sling Main Servlet. > With Sling being used to maintain multiple sites, having a single set of > response headers creates problems where the header provides a non tailored > response. One site may have a conflicting set of requirements then another > site. > If the setting of headers was moved from being a configuration to being a > service used by the Main Servlet, this would allow the following: > * Headers set on a per site basis > * Headers based on selected resource > * Ability to modify the headers without causing the restart of the Sling > Main Servlet > ** Which if you're dealing with CSP headers can be a constant pain > * Ability to create a CSP configuration Service that eases the use of CSP > creation > > -- This message was sent by Atlassian Jira (v8.3.4#803005)
