Felix Meschberger commented on SLING-4275: ------------------------------------------ Thanks, [~cziegeler]. I would also like to have [~radu.cotescu] chime in. Just one thing: bq. what about ValueMap? {{ValueMap extends Map}} and thus does not make it easier. Also since the properties are evaluated in the context of expressions of the form $\{obj.somesub.prop\} parsed by Sightly a {{ValueMap}} propably does not add much value. > Review of the Sightly API > ------------------------- > > Key: SLING-4275 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SLING-4275 > Project: Sling > Issue Type: Task > Components: Scripting > Reporter: Carsten Ziegeler > Fix For: Scripting Sightly Engine 1.0.0 > > > I have some comments about the public Sightly API: > 1. There are several exceptions, like SightlyException, > RuntimeExtensionException, SightlyUseException - are these really required? > The API does not mention any method/interface throwing such an exception > 2. RuntimeExtension and ExtensionInstance - I think we can get rid of the > RuntimeExtension interface and simply pass the RenderContext in > ExtensionInstance#call. > 3. The purpose of the Record interface is a little bit unclear to me. In > addition it has a T get(String) method while properties returns a > Set<String>. I guess the engine supports a Map, so maybe we can get rid of > this interface? > 4. ResourceResolution seems to contain methods for getting scripts. Isn't > this some functionalty the existing ServletResolver component provides? Or if > not, shouldn't we move this to the Sling API? > 5. Many of the methods in the RenderContext are Object traversal and value > conversion methods. I think this needs to go into a separate service (and > maybe package) -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
