Hi devs,
I’m modifying code for handling NestedSpaces in URLs and a lot of code is doing
reference serialization "by hand”. I’d like to rationalize this.
Proposal:
* Deprecate the “path” resolver/serializer which is currently located in
platform-store-filesystem-attachment since “path” is misleading. It’s actually
a FS Path (since it uses File.separator).
* Introduce a new “fspath” resolver/serializer (copy the “path” one) but put it
in the platform-model module since it should be able to be used by any module
using the FS.
* Introduce a new “file” serializer which will generate a file name out of a
reference. UC: when needing to store temporary files (for exports for example)
** use “.” as separator
** escape the “.” using “%2E” as it’s done in the “path” serializer (
URLEncoder.encode(currentReference.getName(), "UTF-8").replace(".", "%2E")); )
hoping that whoever wrote it checked that “%” was a valid char in all File
systems… ;)
WDYT?
Thanks
-Vincent
