Marcel Offermans commented on ACE-513:
--------------------------------------
I think that would also be a worthwhile refactoring, [~bramk]. Perhaps we
should make a separate issue for it?
> Improve workspace API
> ---------------------
>
> Key: ACE-513
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ACE-513
> Project: ACE
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: Client Repository
> Affects Versions: 2.0.1
> Reporter: J.W. Janssen
>
> The current workspace API has a couple of drawbacks that makes it less
> efficient when used in scripts. For example, the create methods ({{c*}}) do
> not all return the created repository object, needing a lookup if you want to
> do other stuff with that repository object after creation.
> A list of proposed changes:
> * let the create methods return the created object;
> * the {{da}} method should accept an {{ArtifactObject}} instead of an
> {{RepositoryObject}} (conform the other delete methods);
> * {{lr}} and {{lrp}} both do the same thing: list resource processors. Remove
> {{lr}} in favour of {{lrp}};
> * expose the {{createArtifact}}, {{createFeature}}, etc from
> {{WorkspaceImpl}} as this makes it easier to read in scripts (the shorthand
> versions are useful when working directly in gogo shell).
> Any thoughts, remarks?
