Konstantin Boudnik commented on BIGTOP-1494:
--------------------------------------------
As discussed in BIGTOP-1718 a time for DSL has come. On the same ticket, Rob
has implemented the JSON format to represent the stack and component. To
refresh it looks like this:
{code}
{
"version": "0.9.0",
"components": [
...
{
"name": {
"project": "zookeeper",
"pkg": "zookeeper",
"relNotes": "Apache Zookeeper"
},
"tarball": {
"destination": "zookeeper-3.4.5.tar.gz",
"source": "zookeeper-3.4.5.tar.gz"
},
"url": {
"site": "http://apache.osuosl.org/zookeeper/zookeeper-3.4.5",
"archive":
"http://archive.apache.org/dist/zookeeper/zookeeper-3.4.5"
},
"version": {
"base": "3.4.5",
"pkg": "3.4.5",
"release": "1"
},
"git": {
"repo": null,
"ref": null,
"dir": null
}
}
]
}
{code}
I'd say something similar expressed in Groovy should work as a DSL. Thoughts?

> Key: BIGTOP-1494
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/BIGTOP-1494
> Project: Bigtop
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: build
> Affects Versions: 0.8.0
> Reporter: jay vyas
> Assignee: Konstantin Boudnik
> Fix For: 0.9.0
>
>
> Seems confusing to have a {{.mk}} file which is mostly just a bunch of
> variable declarations, which is then parsed as a CSV, simply for the sake of
> guiding the {{packages.gradle}} file .
> Can we be more idiomatic to gradle and either eliminate {{bigtop.mk}} by
> making it into a native gradle data structure (its really just an array, and
> we can declare in gradle.settings) , so that the {{readBOM}} function is
> easier to follow ?
> I think it is an entry point to understanding bigtop's build system so we
> should try to simplify it as much as possible to make it maximally easy for
> people to understand how bigtop's gradle packaging system works.
