-------------------------------
Summary: Add Support for Bundle URL References
Key: SLING-9524
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SLING-9524
Project: Sling
Issue Type: New Feature
Components: Repoinit
Affects Versions: Repoinit JCR 1.1.26
Reporter: Dan Klco
Assignee: Dan Klco
Fix For: Repoinit JCR 1.1.28
JCR RepoInit supports references to URLs using the
{{org.apache.sling.jcr.repoinit.impl.RepositoryInitializer}} service _AND_ the
OSGi framework supports resolving resources to bundles via the bundle:// URL
protocol:
https://docs.osgi.org/javadoc/r4v43/core/org/osgi/framework/Bundle.html#getResource(java.lang.String)
However, (in Apache Felix at least) the OSGi container generates the Bundle
URLs based on a UUID rather than a stable identifier (such as the Bundle's
Symbolic Name):
https://github.com/apache/felix-dev/blob/master/framework/src/main/java/org/apache/felix/framework/URLHandlersBundleStreamHandler.java
While it is possible to resolve these UUID's at runtime, this requires an
additional OSGi Component to resolve the Bundle URL and then create a
configuration for the RepositoryInitializer.
Ideally, we would be able to use a URL to reference a bundle resource using the
Symbolic Name, which would be resolved at runtime to the bundle UUID.
