------------------------------------
Summary: Create extension point for parser configuration user
interface
Key: METRON-825
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/METRON-825
Project: Metron
Issue Type: New Feature
Reporter: Ryan Merriman
Assignee: Ryan Merriman
METRON-623 introduces a new user interface for configuring parsers. Many
common parser configuration tasks are covered but some parser can benefit from
a custom editor made specifically for that parser. The GrokParser is a good
example of this: a special Grok statement editor is included that only applies
to that parser.
New parsers could also benefit from having a custom editor. There should be a
way for contributors to bundle a custom editor in addition to custom parser
classes. This extension point should be well defined and documented (with
examples) and not require detailed knowledge of the whole management UI
architecture.
I suspect the outcome of METRON-258 will also influence this design.
