Well, the implementation in fact is to use a factory to get the ContentManager. Look at the ContentResolverFilter class. But this is different from the question on how we provide the ContentManager to components: As the return value of a declared method or as a well known request attribute. The first solution locks the Component into the API and forces the implementation of the API itself into providing a ContentManager object. The second solution of just having the request attribute makes the existence of a ContentManager an implementation detail of the API implementation but locks the Component into the API implementation, which IMHO is more of a problem than being locked into the API. As you say yourself, you now keep the manager as a request-scoped attribute, but would like to make a subclass of HttpServletRequest include a method to retrieve it. If you used a factory to retrieve the manager, that change wouldn't have any impact on any code that uses that manager. The ContentManager is core to Sling - without the ContentManager Sling cannot operate because it is used by Sling - the ContentResolver implementation to be precise - to resolve paths to Content instances. So Sling cares to have the ContentManager handy and just provides it to components to manage the Content. Regarding extending HttpServletRequest: The ComponentRequest interface already extends the HttpServletRequest interface, so adding a getter for the ContentManager would just add to the ComponentRequest interface. I have to admit I haven't started working closely with Sling yet, so I don't have the full overview of the API yet. My concern for subclassing core interfaces in the servlet API is due to deployment and testing concerns. If you have an API where you allow users of the API to rely on there always being subclassed instances of HttpServletRequest available, then you also lock any deployment configuration into always providing it. With my experience with different servlet containers and deployment models, one cannot always ensure that specific servlet filters are handling requests at all times in a given servlet container. Eg. try getting servlet filters to work 100% of the time for error pages in tomcat. Thus, I always prefer a mechanism for retrieving manager instances which do not rely on subclassing HttpServletRequest or employing filters. The testing issue is a bit more simple, mainly concerned with making it easier to test code by using interfaces and classes that can easily be mocked. HttpServletRequest is not the best in that regard. -- -Tor
Re: [jira] Commented: (SLING-64) Refactor Servlets and Script resolution

Sorry for trying hard to be a pita :) but again, can we please let all

I think it's easy to first discuss a topic in the mailing list and
then
create a jira which either sums up the discussion or references the
mailing list archives.
Ok, here is my proposal from the Jira issue comment:
How about abstracting this a bit, instead of relying on servlets to
say themselves if they can handle a request, to use factories, or
rather, mappers.
A manager would resolve a request to a sling servlet by iterating
through its configured mappers and stopping once a suitable sling
servlet is found. If no mapper resolves a servlet, the default sling
servlet is called.
public interface ServletMapper {
public SlingServlet findServlet(SlingServletRequest request,
Resource resource) throws Exception;
}
A configuration file would specify the order of the mappers, along
with any configuration parameters each mapper needs. (A simple
digester implementation would allow configuration parameters to be
set using reflection.)
A default mapper which maps to servlets based on url and/or jcr node
type or resource type can be provided which would be sufficient in
most cases. For specific needs a sling api user would implement his
own mapper.
Sitemesh uses a similar setup with great success for decorating web
pages based on any combination of url patterns, request parameters
and others. I'm using such a mapper approach successfully in our own
prototype crm framework.

The best analogy is probably Struts' ActionForward class. Wouldn't it be appropriate to use a JSP as a view component for a Resource? I feel that having the SlingMainServlet resolve to view components is duplicating functionality available in the servlet container. A SlingForward could either be initialised with a resource type, requesting handling by the appropriate SlingServlet for the resource type, by a normal path parameter to forward to a JSP decided by the servlet container, or some other constant to request handling by a script execution servlet. The above interface would then contain the method This is too much overhead and in fact is one of the main concerns I have with Struts. I think the current solution of resolving the request to a Servlet (taking the Resource and other request properties (method, selectors, extension) into account is appropriate. If the response should be rendered by another Servlet (be it a normal servlet, be it a script, or whatever) may be implemented by standard request forwarding. My main concern is that I'm interested in seeing model resolution and view resolution separated. I guess with the current framework, model resolution is opaque to Sling, and the Resource component represents the view. A better example than in my previous message is a blog. Ideally, the model for the blog would be loaded first. Then, depending on the view being RSS or normal HTML view, a view resolver would direct to the correct Servlet. With the current framework, a single component would be needed for both RSS and normal view? 3. Extend the MicroslingRequestContext implementation to resolve a number of ResourceResolver and ServletResolver from the service locator. They should be orderly configured, and each one tried until one actually resolves a Resource / Servlet. This would be needed for the suggested ServletResolver setup to be easily extended as suggested above. I do not think, that this is appropriate for microsling. For the real Sling we might implement such feature of chained Resource- and ServletResolvers as actual requirements would raise. On the API level, I would not codify this. The reason for this is to facilitate overriding the default resolver. How would you do that in a situation where you need only a few special cases, but otherwise the default behaviour?

In microsling (which drives the Sling API redesign), Components are gone, there's only -The Resource, which represents, in its simplest form, a JCR Node -The Servlet (or script) which handles the request So, although MVC does not really apply here, If we want to think in MVC terms I'd say the Resource is the Model, and the Servlet is the view (in the case of a GET method), or the controller (in the case of a POST/PUT/DELETE/unsafe) method. If we follow this reasoning, you'd handle a POST request by having microsling call a first controller script that manipulates data, and forwards to a GET request which calls the view script. Does that make sense to you? I think working in this way might help people embrace the REST style, which is IMHO a nice side effect. Yes I guess the terminology is a bit confusing. A Resource is also something used in WebDAV. But I guess the naming issue is done and dusted already. ...A better example than in my previous message is a blog.

If by component you mean a microsling Servlet/Script, then the answer is no: the request selectors (.rss.xml) or extension (.rss) will cause a different rendering script to be used. This is fine for new implementation. What if one need to implement legacy services, where the url patterns used are different? Providing the request selector as the default mechanism is good.

My general experience is that many application might need the concept of ownership (eg your blog posts are only editable by you), but that read permissions are mostly set at world-readable. The concept of ownership would be integral to your domain model, and should probably be enforces as part of any DAO layer. If you need anything more advanced than that, all access to the JCR nodes should go through a proper DAO layer, also for reading, which would sort of make it wise to use something else than Sling. -- Torgeir Veimo [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Currently the Jackrabbit protocol has an RMI library, which allows plain-JCR remoting over RMI. In addition there is a simple WebDAV servlet, which allows filesystem-like access over WebDAV to the repository and there is a JCR WebDAV servlet, which in fact remotes the JCR API over WebDAV using defined WebDAV functionality such as DASL etc. The webdav protocol doesn't map fully to the JCR data model.

This is not currently possible (though the implementation would be rather simple). The problem is that we also support WebDAV on / through the Sling WebDAV bundle. So, for WebDAV we might want to expect the script to be returned as plaintext to be able to edit and modify it. I could imagine two options: (1) we add a configuration setting, which controls whether scripts are executed or not or (2) add a servlet to handle a special extension, which would execute the script.
