I would like to organize a Cocoon app as a set of Hivemind components
(as recommended by the Bricks CMS demo).
I've very quickly run into a problem... one of the components needs
to read some data from a file and therefore needs access to the Cocoon
context so it can look for this file without having to hard code the
absolute file location.
Unfortunately, the Bricks demo doesn't cover this aspect of Hivemind
integration into Cocoon. Are there any other examples about that
would help me?...
You're right that currently, in Bricks, the HiveMind component manager
is completely separate from Cocoon's, this deserves to be improved.
I'm no guru on Cocoon internals, so maybe one of those people would
have a better idea, but what I'd do is to build the HiveMind Registry
in a different way: creating the Registry in a Cocoon component which
implements ThreadSafe and Contextualizable would allow you to inject
the Cocoon Context (and other components if needed) into the Registry
when it's initialized. And you can still add the Registry as a context
attribute to be backwards-compatible with the current Bricks code.
I haven't checked how to inject components programmatically into the
HiveMind Registry, but there's probably a way. Worst case, you could
modify the bricks-cms ApplicationComponentManager class to give access
to the Context, injected by your Contextualizable initializer class.
I'd be happy to integrate any improvements in bricks-cms about this, in
order to build a better bridge between the HiveMind and Cocoon
"worlds".
