Hi Carsten
I've actually developed something in this area already. It's basically prepared
statements for XPATH and SQL queries, using the builder pattern. The solution
is mature and in use in numerous large commercial deployments.
Here is an example of what using it looks like for XPATH statements (quite the
same for SQL)
xpath("/jcr:root/content/?/?//*[@jcr:primaryType='cq:Page' and
jcr:content/@sling:resourceType='?']")
.setPath(0, "tenant")
.setPath(1, "en")
.set(2, "project/templates/articlePage")
.execute(resourceResolver)
So, there are placeholders with type-safe setters (most notably for paths,
dates, calendars etc.), simple execution
+ a result that allows fast retrieval of resources, adaptation and pagination,
with re-usable thread-safe iterators.
If you are interested, I would offer to contribute it to what you are building.
Regards,
Olaf

Subject: Re: Is there a way to limit the results of a query using the Sling API?
I'm currently trying to design a new query API which is not string based
anymore. It would be much easier to use, safer and in no way require you to
write complex SQL or Xpath queries
I'll soon have a draft which I'll post here for discussion
