> Key: SQOOP-1680
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SQOOP-1680
> Project: Sqoop
> Issue Type: Bug
> Reporter: Veena Basavaraj
> Fix For: 1.99.5
>
>
> Having a good doc for repository will encourage us to create better code
> going forward to support other types of repository.
> Even the repo upgrade can be its own clean api
> Well we have connector developer guide that details the responsibilities.
> I have similar thoughts for the exec engine and repository.
> You many ask why? If we think ourselves as external developers we will take
> less shortcuts and make our code mode extensible and clean is my thought.
> for instance
> Should the create link api enforce the unique constraint on name or the
> database table should. these are not documented anywhere clearly for someone
> trying to add a new repo and the recommended practices are nice to have
