Add a click.xml "deployed" setting.
-----------------------------------
Key: CLK-523
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CLK-523
Project: Click
Issue Type: New Feature
Components: core
Reporter: Adrian A.
Please add a new setting to click.xml called "deployed", with the default
behavior of false (so that would behave like click is working now).
When deployed=true, click would not call "onDeploy" methods at all (as it
should consider that everything is in its place in the production system).
Why would this feature be important?:
- it would allow Click to run in more restricted environments (like replicated
servers) where writing to files is forbidden
- it would be much faster to start (last time I checked, the deploy phase took
most of the time) - this would be important in production mode too, where web
application instances can be hibernated.
(- with this setting Click could score better in benchmarks compared to other
frameworks)
A simple ANT task could "pre-deploy" everything (e.g. by just starting the
application once locally to have click put it's files where they're needed)
before packaging everything as a WAR for sending it to the servers.
Thank you.
