I'm prototyping a DeploymentService that can generate simple deployment descriptors (e.g. to create a jms queue) or more complex unpacked archives (e.g. the ./deploy/jms or /jmx-console) that are created by copying a directory structure and overlaying/rendering any deployment descriptor using apache-velocity templates.
This allows the programmatic creation of "durable" services that survive server restarts, and the development of GUI apps that allow the administrator to instantiate services on the server (e.g. JMS) without having to write the descriptors. In the prototype I can output the modules directly to ./deploy for the scanner to pick up, but I thought it would be better to use an intermediate directory (e.g. undeploy) where modules could be generated OR uploaded and reside there in an "undeployed" state, until they are explicitly moved to ./deploy (or back to undeploy). So the API would look something like Upload() Create() (all 3 operating in the undeploy dir) Remove() Then I need a deploy() and undeploy(). In those 2 operations I would like to synchronise with the MainDeployer, somehow, so that I don't wait for the deployment scanner (faster) and get more immediate input on the outcome. So If I just move the module to deploy then immediately call MainDeployer.deploy() are there any issues conflicting with the Scanner? What if it happens to get there first? And if so, how will I learn about the fate and possible problem of the deployment (or undeployment)? Also, it would be as well easy to move modules to ./farm or ha-singleton dirs, however, whom do I call for farmed or ha-singleton deployments? How the MainDeployer behaves in this case? Any ideas and suggestion are welcome.
