Re: [Architecture] [AF] ESB Apptype Resources section
Hi, Since it looks very complicated in AF environment, I would like to suggest to stick with existing resources architecture and remove all of the CAR based resources. As a nice to have thing, we can automatically add the endpoint format and remove all other resources type. thanks, dimuthu On Tue, Aug 4, 2015 at 11:17 AM, Manjula Rathnayake manju...@wso2.com wrote: Hi all, The registry resources may contain sensitive data that we do not need to expose to anyone who is having a download link or access to source code.

In this case, we will not show a download button directly in resources page, rather upon requesting for a download, we will generate the car file and show the download link. WDYT? thank you.

First problem to solve is what to show in this page for view purposes. Since no edit part is there and only will be a place to upload the new CAR file for the stage it will only be matter of showing the resources of the ESB application. There are few things that we can show here. 1. We can show the CAR file for the stage and add a download link. But the problem is from where to get this built artifact from to let the user download the artifact. Options we have are like below. 1. Download from Jenkins - We need to construct an url for jenkins built artifact. But again this url contains groupIds of the artifact which is difficult to construct. 2. Download from S2 Git - We can get this artifact from s2 git location to a temp location in AF and let the user download it. Here again we need to clone whole repo for the simple download. 3. Build it from source code on the fly - Will take processing power and will be slow also. 4. Store the CAR in some apache server so later we can provide the users the link to download 2. We can read the artifacts.xml from the source code and show it in the UI just for view purposes. 3. Show registry resources from the registry itself. 4. Provide the git repo url and show the CAR file name. No download option provided. Next problem is to match these things with the existing UI. For ESB apptype we need to give upload option instead of edit option. To solve this we can do following 1. We can do a complex configuration in apptype to say which apptype allows uploading car files and not and which apptype allows just the car file uploading and which allows adding from ui and which allows both and so on. 2. We can introduce a new runtime config type as CAR Resources and we can have upload option there which will be cleaner IMO. But still the we need to solve first problem in a clean way to provide a complete solution. IMO #5 is OK and simple. But having a download option is always nicer and better. Any Ideas would be appreciated.
