Re: [openstack-dev] [oslo][mistral] Mistral expressions package
The dependencies of mistral expressions package make it hard to be adopted as a module of oslo library, we need oslo library keep simple. we have a adopt process [1] which is not merged to help guide the adoption process if we agree. agree with Dough, we can discuss in the Oslo weekly meeting.[2] [1] https://review.openstack.org/312233 [2] http://eavesdrop.openstack.org/#Oslo_Team_Meeting 2017-10-18 12:46 GMT+08:00 Renat Akhmerov : > Hi, > > I’m not too happy about the idea of creating one more subproject within > Mistral.

I'm not sure why you think it would be less of a burden for you to maintain the library under oslo than mistral, but I was presenting an alternative not a strong objection to having oslo take on the library. If the library has no dependencies on libraries like oslo.config, then we would want to leave "oslo" or "mistral" out of the name to encourage adoption outside of openstack. So, think about whatever name you might have used for that github repository. It seems like the next step is to get more of the oslo team involved in the conversation to see whether they are willing to take responsibility for a new repository. Maybe one of you can add it to the meeting agenda for next week?

Re: [openstack-dev] [oslo][mistral] Mistral expressions package
Hi, I’m not too happy about the idea of creating one more subproject within Mistral. I don’t even see now what else this new library project managed by Mistral team will contain besides this expression utils module. I’m also not sure about its name. We already have mistral-lib which was created for a different purpose (public APIs for making Mistral extensions like actions and YAQL/Jinja functions). Just to clarify: the code we’re talking about is really small and stable (we haven’t touched it for a while, it just works), and it’s generic so it can be reused in many situations by many projects. That’s why we had an idea to find a place within one of the Oslo libraries, just to make one more package (or even module), for example, in oslo.utils. As far as maintaining this code, we could still do that. But anyway, if that’s not OK, I’d just suggest we leave it as it is. If this code needs to be reused somewhere else outside OpenStack space (like in Bob’s case) may be it’s just simpler to create a project on github?

Then you would add that repository to the list managed by the mistral team by modifying the project list file in the governance repository.

[openstack-dev] [oslo][mistral] Mistral expressions package
Hello Oslo team: The Mistral project has an expressions package [0] that is used to evaluate inline expressions using a context. It has a pluggable architecture that presently supports Jinja and YAQL expression evaluation. It also allows custom functions[1] to provide Python implementations of functionality that is then made available to the expression evaluation engines. This functionality was originally developed to support dynamic processing within Mistral workflows, but is also very useful in other applications that use templates which require runtime evaluation of expressions. I'd like to explore extracting this functionality from mistral to make it more widely available with minimal dependencies. The expressions dependencies are pretty limited: Jinja2 oslo.utils oslo.log stevedore yaql and since 60% are already oslo-maintained packages, it seemed like a logical place to start. I'd appreciate feedback on the topic. There is no real OpenStack dependency in the functionality, so maybe a standalone package on pypi makes sense. Thanks for your help, Bob Haddleton [0] https://github.com/openstack/mistral/tree/master/mistral/expressions [1] https://github.com/openstack/mistral/blob/master/mistral/utils/expression_utils.py#L63 __ OpenStack Development Mailing List (not for usage questions) Unsubscribe: openstack-dev-requ...@lists.openstack.org?subject:unsubscribe http://lists.openstack.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/openstack-dev
