Just an aside,
Here is an example of the Business Tier code that should be consolidated
either into a DDD Repository object or some business tier (Command
Framework) that would be used in common across all Webapps and CLI such
that any UI can consistently produce the same result when creating
Communities.
Basic Community creation logic
https://github.com/DSpace/DSpace/blob/master/dspace-api/src/main/java/org/dspace/content/Community.java#L179
In JSPUI
https://github.com/DSpace/DSpace/blob/master/dspace-jspui/dspace-jspui-api/src/main/java/org/dspace/app/webui/servlet/admin/EditCommunitiesServlet.java#L206
https://github.com/DSpace/DSpace/blob/master/dspace-jspui/dspace-jspui-api/src/main/java/org/dspace/app/webui/servlet/admin/EditCommunitiesServlet.java#L476
In XMLUI
https://github.com/DSpace/DSpace/blob/master/dspace-xmlui/dspace-xmlui-api/src/main/java/org/dspace/app/xmlui/aspect/administrative/FlowContainerUtils.java#L830
In WEBMVC
https://github.com/DSpace/webmvc/blob/master/webmvc-api/src/main/java/org/dspace/webmvc/controller/admin/CommunityController.java#L75
In REST
https://github.com/DSpace/dspace-rest/blob/master/src/main/java/org/dspace/rest/entities/CommunityEntity.java#L461
REST gets us closest to a set of overridable logic because it leaves the
static Manager paradigm behind.
Note a DDD Repository (http://domaindrivendesign.org/node/123) could easily
be behind the static factory methods exposed in the Community API. Use of
Spring for wiring of DAO/Repository methods for Creating a Provider for
creation of Communities (Robin Taylors current track of work) provides us
with a lightweight mechanism to override instantiation logic across all
applications.
Once the DAO is properly encapsulating CRUD to create Communities, the
Community class then becomes its own DDD Repository. Allowing applications
to override the Repository (IE not by hacking Community.java in the source
or by overriding it on the classpath, but instead by properly using
configuration and wiring to insert ones own provider or a separate service
object). This design, would then allow this user to significantly alter
the underlying behavior of what happens on Community creation
without necessarily needing to alter UI centric code. As long as the
Provider API contract is maintained, we then have a means to allow flexible
alteration with predictable interfaces that can maintain
backwards compatibility across releases.
