Anatole Tresch resolved TAMAYA-372.
-----------------------------------
Resolution: Fixed
> Clarifiy/isolate metadata format
> --------------------------------
>
> Key: TAMAYA-372
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TAMAYA-372
> Project: Tamaya
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: API, Core, Extensions
> Affects Versions: 0.3-incubating
> Reporter: Anatole Tresch
> Assignee: Anatole Tresch
> Priority: Major
> Fix For: 0.4-incubating
>
> Original Estimate: 72h
> Remaining Estimate: 72h
>
> Currently we use different metadata formats:
> * {{like etcd: starting with an '_', e.g. _a.b.c.meta=ghfghgf}}
> * {{Using a bracket stype prefix similar to log formats:
> [META]a.b.c.meta=ghfghgf}}
> The proposal is to
> * Add a *MetaDataProvider* SPI that
> ** extracts metadata inline with the config entries.
> ** extracts metadata from the property value metadata entries
> ** supports adding metadata also programmatically
> Along with that the default metadata format should be changed to:
> {{[(META)a.b.c].meta=ghfghgf}}
>
> This allows for future extensions of metadata types and defines a clear
> parseable structure for adding metadata along the configuration.
