Francesco Chicchiriccò commented on SYNCOPE-956:
------------------------------------------------
The idea is to:
# define a new {{ExtensionScript}} entity with {{key}}, {{type}} and
{{content}} properties where:
## {{key}} is the script's mnemonic name
## {{type}} is one of
[ImplementationLookup#Type|https://github.com/apache/syncope/blob/master/core/persistence-api/src/main/java/org/apache/syncope/core/persistence/api/ImplementationLookup.java#L31-L47]
## {{content}} is the actual JS script
# adjust other entities so that a script name can be optionally provided for
customization
# define customization Java classes which will act as script wrappers so that,
when a script is required for a given customization, such parametric Java
classes will be used instead, delegating the actual logic to the selected script
An example implementation of wrapper Java class is provided for {{PullActions}}
at
https://gist.github.com/ilgrosso/8e442026bc8cf40ad8d307bbef85c140
This would require to update the {{PullJobDelegate#doExecuteProvisioning}}
method from
https://github.com/apache/syncope/blob/master/core/provisioning-java/src/main/java/org/apache/syncope/core/provisioning/java/pushpull/PullJobDelegate.java#L125-L136

> Allow Javascript-based customizations

> Key: SYNCOPE-956
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SYNCOPE-956
> Project: Syncope
> Issue Type: New Feature
> Reporter: Francesco Chicchiriccò
> Labels: javascript
> Fix For: 2.1.0
>
>
> The core can be customized in [several
> ways|http://syncope.apache.org/docs/reference-guide.html#customization-core];
> all customizations require to be written as Java classes - which is generally
> good but requires redeploy to be made effective, unless some class reloading
> mechanism is in place (as JRebel).
> By leveraging Java 8's
> [Nashorn|http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/articles/java/jf14-nashorn-2126515.html]
> - which also provides interesting execution performance, we could overcome
> such limitation and allow to write customizations in Javascript, which can be
> immediately available for execution at runtime.
> Once implemented in the core, such feature will require editing capabilities
> to be added to console and IDE plugins.
