Eric Charles commented on MAILBOX-44: ------------------------------------- The maibox component injection is achieved by the server project with context files you can find in https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/james/server/trunk/container-spring/src/main/config/james/context/ There are some functional tests for the different mailbox impl in http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/james/mailbox-integration-tester/trunk/ These are tests for the imap protocol using the mailbox impl. The mailbox project in it self only contains some basic testing for now. Having a dependency injection modulie in the mailbox project (without the need to have a server) is on my todo. Btw, which missing plugins exceptions have you received. If needed, you may remove from you local maven repo ($HOME/.m2/repository/...) the bad plugins, your next build should download it again from the internet maven repositories. > [gsoc2011] Design and implement a distributed mailbox using Hadoop > ------------------------------------------------------------------ > > Key: MAILBOX-44 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MAILBOX-44 > Project: James Mailbox > Issue Type: New Feature > Reporter: Eric Charles > Assignee: Norman Maurer > Labels: gsoc2011 > > Context: The mailbox subproject (http://james.apache.org/mailbox/) supports > maildir, SQL database (via JPA) and Java Content Repository (JCR) as > technology for mail storage. This flexibility is achieved thanks to a API > design that abstracts mail storage from the mail protocols. > Task: We need to implement mailbox storage as a distributed system on top of > Hadoop HDFS. The James mailbox API will be used. A first step is to design > how to interact with Hadoop (native api, gora incubator at apache,...) and > deal with specific performance questions related to mail loading/parsing in a > distributed system (use map/reduce or not, use existing local lucene indexes > for search,...). The second step is to implement the HDFS mailbox (maildir > mailbox is similar because is stores mails as a file and can be an > inspiration). A single James server will still be deployed because we don't > have any distributed UID generation. > Mentor: eric at apache dot org > Complexity: medium -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
