Justin Edelson commented on SLING-2596: --------------------------------------- bq. What would that be used for ? Imagine you wanted to encrypt property values which were annotated with @Encrypted. In other words, posting foo=somevalue foo@Encrypted=true should actually set the foo property to an encrypted version of "somevalue" (how this encryption is done isn't important). To implement this in a SlingPostProcessor requires iterating the request parameters to extract the property names and then through the enter Modification list to update the values. This is a moderate amount of code (~150 lines). If we make this SuffixHandler a first-class extension point, that amount of code would be radically reduced. > add an extension point to the Sling Post Servlet which makes it easy to add > new suffixes > ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: SLING-2596 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SLING-2596 > Project: Sling > Issue Type: New Feature > Components: Servlets > Reporter: Justin Edelson > > Writing a SlingPostProcessor to handle an @Foo -style property is too hard... > we should make it easier. > Something like: > @Component > @Service > @Property(name="suffix", value="My") > public class MySuffixHandler implements PostSuffixHandler { > void handle(RequestProperty prop, Map<String, RequestProperty> > allProperties) { > // TODO - recalculate the property values > } > } -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
