--------------------------------------
Summary: Web Console configurations page does not take into
account ConfigAdmin plugins
Key: FELIX-6730
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FELIX-6730
Project: Felix
Issue Type: Bug
Components: Web Console
Affects Versions: webconsole-5.0.8
Reporter: Robert Munteanu

I am using the {{org.apache.felix.configadmin.plugin.interpolation}} plug-in
for processing placeholders in configuration and when I do that the
Configuration view from [http://localhost:8080/system/console/configMgr] does
not take into account the changes applied by the plugin-in.
Here's what I did:
1. Defined OSGi config for a (declarative services) component that uses
placeholders. Web console status config shows it as
{noformat}
PID = org.apache.sling.engine.impl.SlingMainServlet
sling.includes.checkcontenttype =
$[env:INCLUDES_CHECK_CONTENT_TYPE;type=Boolean;default=false]
{noformat}
2. Launched my app with the env var INCLUDES_CHECK_CONTENT_TYPE set to true
3. Checked the configurations tab and noticed that the value is confirmed to be
non-default but false

This is very confusing in case of boolean values. In case of strings you would
see the placeholder and somehow figure out what is going on, but here it's
basically impossible.
4. We eventually figured out by going to either the services tab or the
components tab that the properties had the right value but it took a lot of time

I think it would be great if the configurations view would be able to show the
processed configuration properties, maybe alongside the 'raw' ones, as it would
make it much easier to understand what the effective property value is.
