John Volkar updated JSPWIKI-425:
--------------------------------
Description:
Provide a means to enable a running JSPWiki installation to periodically update
its installed plugins.
The following properties illustrate the idea.
jspwiki.plugins.autoupdate.svn-url = xxx:xxx
jspwiki.plugins.autoupdate.period = never | hourly | daily | weekly
jspwiki.plugins.autoupdate.versioning = none | X.X.any | X.any.any |
any.any.any
jspwiki.plugins.autoupdate.doc-source = none | from-plugin-help | from-svn-url
jspwiki.plugins.autoupdate.doc-target = none | %p | %p Help (where %p is the
Plugin classname)
Mandatory plugin behaviors:
1) follow a Major.Minor.Patch version numbering scheme (via annotations or
simply an interface or abstract method on WikiPlugin)
2) invoke with param=help return plugin help as wikitext , or maintain a
standard named file in svn.
Item 1 allows a versioning update policy to be followed consistently.
Item 2 allows generation of a docs/help/usage page for the installed plugin
version.
Of course the attributes in jspwiki_module.xml (which become annotations in
3.0) should be respected (specifically min and max jspwiki version that the
plugin needs). *Possibly* this could be extended to autoinstall dependencies.
What I *really* want is a more OSGi like bundle scheme, but that may be
overkill for plugins (as well as perhaps being more complex that is really
warranted at this time).
